The trochanteric fossa is deep, but does not extend so far distally as in the horse. The distal end presents no very striking differential features, but the ridges of the trochlea are less oblique than in the horse, and converge very slightly below. The proximal extremity unites with the shaft at about three and one-half years, the distal
