Big Bertha• Holds 2 Guinness World Records• One for longest lifespan
• She lived 48 years!• 1945-1993
• Only 3 months shy of her 49th birthday• Even one of her calves lived to be 35
• The other for longest time breeding• She gave birth to 39 calves
• She helped raise $75,000 for cancer research

• Coronoid process is located medially to the zygomatic archProcess allows muscle leverage to be exerted onto the
mandibleMandibular condyle: joint between the skull and the lowerIn cattle and sheep, the mandibular condyle is relatively flat and allows considerable movement in a horizontal plane.
Lateral movement is important in animals whose teeth work with a grinding action.

very strong elastic ligament

Ribcage
• The cage formed by thoracic vertebrae, ribs and sternum is an essential component of the respiratory system.
• Thoracic vertebrae are distinguished by their tall dorsal spines, many of which point towards the hindquarter and are known as the feather bones.
![Page 35: Ruminants Anatomy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815dfe550346895dcc3dc3/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
The structure of the ribcage is rather variable in lamb carcasses

is separated from the right pubis by fibrocartilage – In parturition, softens

The tuber coxae forms the basis of the point of the hip (hooks)

OS COXAE - PELVIS
The pelvic girdle comprised of the illium, ishium, and pubis. This is the largest of the the flat bones
![Page 39: Ruminants Anatomy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815dfe550346895dcc3dc3/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Ilium – Ischium - Pubis
• The largest and most anterior of the three parts of the pelvic girdle
• Hip bone/ Pin bone
• Smallest of the three parts of the pelvic girdle
![Page 40: Ruminants Anatomy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815dfe550346895dcc3dc3/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Aitch bone – Body of shaft of Ischium
• The aitch bone is curved in steer and bull carcasses, is moderately curved in heifers, but is straight in cow carcasses
![Page 41: Ruminants Anatomy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815dfe550346895dcc3dc3/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Forelimb skeleton -Scapula• The scapula is not fused to
the vertebral column (like the pelvis in the hindlimb), and this allows muscles that hold the scapula to the ribcage to function as shock absorbers during locomotion.
• The scapula has a distal socket joint for the next bone in the forelimb, the humerus.
• This socket of the glenohumeral joint is called the glenoid cavity . – The glenoid cavity is wide and
shallow, unlike the ball and socket joint in the hindlimb which is narrow and deep.
![Page 42: Ruminants Anatomy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815dfe550346895dcc3dc3/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
ACROMION• On the lateral face
of the scapula is a prominent ridge of bone called the spine of the scapula. – In beef (OX)
carcasses, the scapular spine is extended distally as a prominent acromion process.
![Page 43: Ruminants Anatomy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815dfe550346895dcc3dc3/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Humerus – “Arm bone / clod bone”
• Proceeding distally down the forelimb, the bone that articulates with the scapula is the humerus.
• Proximally, the humerus has a relatively flat knob or head to fit into the glenoid cavity of the scapula. Two well defined condyles on the distal end of the humerus contribute to the hinge joint at the elbow.
![Page 44: Ruminants Anatomy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815dfe550346895dcc3dc3/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Radius & Ulna: (‘Foreshank bone’)
• The radius is joined to the ulna and is the shorter and more anterior bone of the pair
Beef shankbones showing: 1, distal end of humerus; 2, olecranon fossa; 3, olecranon process;, 4,radius; 5, ulna; and 6, carpal bones.
![Page 45: Ruminants Anatomy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815dfe550346895dcc3dc3/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Femur – ‘Round bone or leg bone’
• The proximal bone of the hindlimb is the femur or round bone. The articular head of the femur is deeply rounded and it bears a round ligament that holds it into the acetabulum.
• Another distinctive feature of the femur is the broad groove between the two trochlear ridges located distally. The patella or knee cap slides in this groove
![Page 46: Ruminants Anatomy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815dfe550346895dcc3dc3/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Tibia – ‘hind shank – hock bone’• In beef and lamb
carcasses there is a single major bone, the tibia or shank bone, located distally to the femur.
• Tibia and fibula 1, medial condyle, 2, lateral condyle; 3, tibia, and 4, fibula.
