Subject: [ZOOARCH] Osteoarthritis in cattle
Dear ZOOARCHS,
I’m presently working on a project of comparative osteoarthritis in humans and cattle. Being an anthropologist by training, I am a bit lost where to start looking for the pertinent literature on animals. I do have Bartosiewicz et al’s seminal monograph on draught cattle but I’m sure there must be loads of veterinary and archaeozoological papers that would prove fruitful in my pursuit. For that reason, I’d be most grateful if some of you could point these out to me.
I would also like to place the following questions to the list:
1-Even though size is not the only factor involved, gravity is definitively an issue to contend with in osteoarthritis, and for this reason I ask you: does anyone know whether osteoarthritis is (or should theoretically be!) more frequent on large mammals or in smaller ones?
2-Any idea about the smallest and biggest mammal species on which osteoarthritis has been thus far reported?
3-In the case of quadrupeds, should one expect more osteoarthritis to occur in the forelimb or the hindlimb?
Thanks a million!
