The spleen is cut so obliquely as to appear much thicker higher than in the ox. and has no contact with the abdominal wall. It is related on the right to the liver and gall-bladder, on the left to the rumen, and ventrally to the abomasum. The laminse are less numerous than in the ox; in the neck which connects the omasum with the reticulum they have the form of low, thick ridges, and bear long, pointed, horny papillae. The abomasum is relatively.
