Anatomy—It is well to remember that the fallopian tubes andhorns of uterus in sows are extremely long in comparison tosize of animal and that their course is decidedly tortuous in thepelvis and abdominal cavities. The importance of the above canbe more thoroughly comprehended and appreciated if you willcarefully observe these parts and their relation, which is plainly 190 Animal Castration.

The body of theuterus is unusually short when the length of its tubes are taken intoconsideration. The cervix (neck of womb) does not project intothe vagina in such manner as is observed in most other domesticand wild animals. On the other hand, the vagina and uterus ofthe sow are continued into each other without any circumscribedlimit intervening between them. The horns float loosely in theabdominal cavity and are found closely associated with the con-volutions of the intestines. The broad ligaments are mesentericin conformation and character and are extremelv thin and lax.
