Summary The material properties of a tendon affect its ability to store and return elastic energy, resist damage, provide mechanical feedback, amplify or attenuate muscle power. While the structural are known respond variety stimuli, extent which vary among individual muscles remains unclear. We studied tendons six different in hindlimb Eastern wild turkeys determine if there was variation modulus, ultimate tensile strength, resilience. A hydraulic testing machine used measure force during...
