Did homo naledi still have lingering arboreal habits or would it live only in the soil? Please explain your answer

Yes, they could walk in the soil but also have lingering arboreal habits.

Detailed analysis of 107 foot bones indicates that H. naledi was well adapted for standing and walking on two feet, but that it also was likely comfortable climbing trees
