The powerful arms of the chimpanzee are longer than its legs. The chimpanzee pelvis and femur are built to navigate across ground in a quadrupedal knuckle-walking movement. While chimpanzees are able to stand upright and walk for a short distance, the shape of the pelvis and positioning of the attached muscles cause the chimp to sway from side to side in an inefficient bipedal gait.
