Hip and stifle joint anatomy of the Saimaa ( Pusa hispida saimensis) and Baltic ringed seals ( Pusa hispida botnica)
Abstract The anatomical architecture of the hip and stifle joints of the Saimaa ringed seal was determined by dissection to be similar to that of the Baltic ringed seal. There was no ligament of the femoral head in the hip joint. The lateral side of the stifle joint lacked a collateral ligament but...
