What are some examples of bio-inspired locomotion in robotics, and how do robots replicate the movement strategies of animals such as insects, birds, or mammals to navigate challenging terrains, exploit environmental features, and achieve energy-efficient locomotion in natural or artificial environments?

Examples include robotic insects, flying drones, and legged robots inspired by the morphology and behavior of real animals. These robots use biomimetic design principles such as flapping wings, jumping legs, or slithering motion to traverse diverse terrains, overcome obstacles, and adapt to environmental conditions while conserving energy and maximizing mobility in locomotion tasks.
