Description
Summary:This article describes the biomorphological features of the hip joint muscles of representatives of the order Strigiformes(Snowy Owl and Strix). It was found that in representatives of this order the degree of differentiation of the knee joint muscles is caused by the jumping type of bipedal locomotion and biomorphological static features, which in turn has an influence on the degree of every hip joint muscle development.
