Coyote Tibiae and Fibulae Comparative Pathology Set

FO-404 $100.00

The wound to this canid tibia and fibula was the result of trauma sustained by impact with a vehicle. Constriction of the surrounding muscles during the healing process caused a severe deformation of the bones, including shortening of their total length by 1.5" (3.8cm). This animal no longer had the use of this leg but was obviously able to survive for an extended length of time. Ironically, this specimen was collected along a roadway and, presumably, met his fate during a second vehicle collision.
