Abstract EN
The study aim to explain the anatomical description of the digit of fore limb in goat (Capra hircus).
Left and right fore limbs of 10 Iraqi healthy male goats aging (6) months, with no history of lameness and without local swelling or joint distension were utilized in this study.
The study reveals that the goats have two digits; each digit has three phalanges (pI, p II, p III) and sesamoid bones.
The PI longer than the other phalanx while the pII was much shorter than the pI.
PIII was uniquely triangular in shape with numerous vascular channels.
The proximal sesamoid bones were elongated and each bone have three surfaces while distal sesamoid bones were shuttle in shape and situated palmer to the second interphalangeal joints.
