Arboreal Sentence Examples:

• It was instinct - a familiar phase in a child - that induced him to put pebbles, twigs, and small articles in his mouth until he found what was pleasant to his taste and eatable - nuts and berries; and it was instinct, the most ancient and deeply implanted, - the lingering index of an arboreal ancestry, - that now taught him the safety and comfort of these woody shades, and, as night came on, prompted him - as it prompts a drowning man to reach high, and leads a creeping babe to a chair - to attempt climbing a tree.

• It is arboreal in its habits, and climbs with great agility.
