The posterior surface is wide, and is limited laterally by a ridge which extends from the trochanter major to the large lateral supra- condyloid crest. There is no supracondyloid fossa. The head is strongly curved, and is marked toward the medial side by a rather large fovea for the attachment of the round ligament. The neck is distinct. The trochanter major, although massive, does not extend above the level of the head. The trochanteric ridge and fossa re- semble those of the ox. The third trochanter is absent. The ridges of the trochlea are similar and almost sagittal. The extremities unite with the shaft at about three and a half years. The shaft of the tibia is slightly curved, convex medially. The tuberosity is grooved in front, and a narrow sulcus separates it from the lateral condyle. The facet for the fibula is on the posterior border of the latter, and is bounded.
