146 / 55
Keywords:
Adrenal gland, biometry, Gaddi, goat, sheepAbstract
The study was conducted on six adrenal glands ofadult Gaddi sheep (n-6) and goat (n-6). Different gross and biometrical parameters viz. length, breadth, thickness, weight and volume ofadrenal gland were recorded. In Gaddi sheep the left adrenal was elongated and flattened dorso-ventrally whereas in Gaddi goat it was elongated, and appeared bean shaped. There was no significant difference in biometrical parameters between right and left adrenal gland ofboth Gaddi sheep and Gaddi goat.
