Hello Zooarch,
Would any of you have by chance the pdf of of the following article, and
would be willing to send me a copy?
Oishi A1, Hamada S, Sakamoto H, Kamiya S, Yanagida K, Kubota C, Watanabe
Y, Shimizu R. 1996 Radiographical evaluation of bone maturation in
Japanese black beef cattle. J Vet Med Sci. 1996 Jun; 58(6):529-35.
And, by the way, what are the references that you use the most often to
age cattle by epiphyseal plate closure? What are your favorite articles on
the subject?
Many thanks in advance,
Annelise
