II. Course description:

This course aimed to provide the students with knowledge, with anatomical terminology and principle
information about the general anatomy of domestic animals that will enable them to gain skills for
comparative anatomy of the limbs and thorax (bones, joints, muscles, main vessels and nerves), beside it
also provide the students with the basic information about the fowl, rabbit and fish anatomy. This course
covers embalming of animals including bone preparation for study, osteology, arthrology, myology of
different domestic animals. Additionally, the innervation of thoracic, pelvic limbs of the horse. Also a brief
description of poultry anatomy is described
Also a brief description of poultry anatomy is described .

II. Course Description:

This course aimed to provide the students with knowledge, with anatomical terminology and principle
information about the general anatomy of domestic animals that will enable them to gain skills for
comparative anatomy of the limbs and thorax (bones, joints, muscles, main vessels and nerves), beside it
also provide the students with the basic information about the fowl, rabbit and fish anatomy. This course
covers embalming of animals including bone preparation for study, osteology, arthrology, myology of
different domestic animals. Additionally, the innervation of thoracic, pelvic limbs of the horse. Also a brief
description of poultry anatomy is described .

III. Intended learning outcomes (ILOs) of the course:

After completing this course, students will be able to:

a1. Recognize the basic anatomical topographical term, skeleton, types and structures of the bones,
joints, muscles, tendons and internal structures (main nerves, vessels and viscera) in domestic
animals.
a2. Distinguish the basic anatomical structures of fowl, rabbit and fish body.
b1. Analyze the diversity of knowledge in the term of gross anatomical characteristics of each organ
and/or structure.
b2. Differentiate between the normal and abnormal position and deviated movements and
malformations of the different joint in both limbs of domestic animals.
c1- Illustrate the shape and the normal anatomical features of the parts of the skeleton and bones of
domestic animals and position of isolated and assembled bones of different domestic animals.
c2. Interpret on clinical findings inside domestic animals, fowl, rabbit and fish bodies based on known
normal anatomy background.
d1. Communicate effectively with animal's owners, public, colleagues using appropriate
communication skills.
d2. Demonstrate appropriate professional attitudes and behaviors in different practice situations.
