 Unlike modern crocodylians, the limbs of "Terrestrisuchus" were very long in proportion to the body and were held upright directly beneath it.The shape of the ankles and the bones in the hands and feet also suggest that "Terrestrisuchus" was digitigrade, with elongated metacarpus (wrist) and metatarsal bones that were pressed tightly together, similar to the feet of fast-running dinosaurs, suggesting that "Terrestrisuchus" was highly cursorial, adapted for running at high speeds.The pisiform bone in the wrist is notably smaller compared to early crocodyliforms such as "Protosuchus", as well as modern crocodilians, indicating that "Terrestrisuchus" had less flexible wrists.
