The average weight of Australopithecus varied among different species, but generally, they are estimated to have weighed between 40 to 110 pounds (18 to 50 kilograms). Australopithecus afarensis, one of the most well-known species, likely weighed around 60 pounds (27 kilograms) on average. Their body structure suggests they were adapted for both bipedalism and climbing.
