Nasal morphometry of a Bactrian camel in an age aspect

Abstract

This article presents the morphometric rationale for changes in the nasal bone of a Bactrian camel in an age aspect. The nasal bone is present in the Bactrian camel, as in all farm and domestic animals, with a flat, paired bone, which is involved in the formation of the roof of the nasal cavity. Anatomically on the nasal bone, the outer and inner surfaces are distinguished. Changes in the length and width of the left and right sides of the interosseous sutures of the nasal bone in the Bactrian camel are similar in age.
