Morphological and histochemical observations on the duodenal glands of eight wild ungulate species native to North America
Abstract The duodenal glands of the species examined ( Alces alces, Ovis canadensis, Cervus canadensis, Oreamnos americanus, Bison bison, Antilocapra americana, Odocoileus virginianas, Odocoileus heminous ) are confined primarily to the submucosa of the small intestine. In one species, the moose, a...
