A study on the macro-anatomical differences of the skeletons of wolf and fox as compared with the skeleton of dog
In this study, the differences that skeleton (except the cranium) of wolf (canis lupus) and fox (canis vulpes) as compared with those of dog were investigated. The observed dijferences were itemized as follow: 2- The transverse process of axis is at the level of the posterior extremity in fox and do...
