Ah yes, bipeds, a species named after its well known tendency to walk on four limbs
To be fair the one that was spotted when they got their name was standing on two legs at the time and the scientist couldn't be bothered to keep watching
Oh huh. Until I read this comment I assumed it was written from the perspective of the weird alien things, and "bipeds" referred to the humans…
Gorilla are bipedal but use 4 as well. Bipedal just means primary mode not sole mode.
