In the hind-limb the femur is recognised by the presence in the horse of a third trochanter on its outer border, and the tibio-fibula or tibia carrying the fused remnant of the fibula, will be seen in the ox to have three articular facets at its distal extremity. The two larger articulate with the astragalus, as in the horse, but the small outer one articu- lates with a small condyle on the calcaneum The astragalus in the horse has a flat facet for the navicular below it, but.
