Bipedalism is a form of moving, that is carried out upon two legs.

Humans are bipedal.

When you are referring to a group of animals (inc. humans), you say that they are collectively bipedal. But if you singled one out, you would say that it is a biped.

Latin origin: "bi" = two, "ped" = foot.

Are apes bipedal?

Most apes 'can' be bipedal, in that their hip joints allow them to put their legs directly below their body. Chimpanzees, Bonobos, Orangutans, Gibbons and Siamangs will willingly walk on their hindlimbs in a bipedal fashion to some extent (particularly the gibbons!). They usually braciate or knuckle-walk (depending on species) for preference. It is only humans that are bipedal the majority of the time.
