Animal speeds: Race to the middle |
A study published this month examines the relationship between animals’ size and their speed. It finds that the top speed of an animal (or fish) rises in tandem with body mass up to a certain point, after which it declines. Though bigger beasts do have the highest theoretical maximum velocity, they tire before reaching it. The result suggests that a race between a man and an elephant would be close to a fair contest, writes our data team |
