How do forelimb long bones adapt in rhinoceroses? An in‐depth examination of their microanatomy
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Here, we study the bone structure in the forelimb long bones of the five extant species of rhinoceroses. By combining traditional description of virtual sections made on the bones (A) with in‐depth cartographies of the variation of bone compactness and anisotropy (B), we show how bone tissue can adapt to extreme forces and constraints in the second ...
