Then you may find out the difference in osteological features from different animals. First you may learn the basic osteological features of femur bone from ox skeleton. In this article I am going to present the anatomy of femur of ox. Again this bone articulates with tibia, fibula and patella below and form the stifle joint. The femur bone presents the two main important parts –įemur bone articulates with hip bone above and form hip joint in animal. It inclines horizontally or with frontal plane of animal body. Femur is directed obliquely downward and forward. The body of the animal femur is cylindrical and more massive.
