Morphometric measurements were taken with digital callipers on the bones which were duly carried out a maceration. While calcification areas were not seen in the proximal and corpus parts of right and left humerus; a large calcification of 9,17 mm width and 17,75 mm length was determined in length on the edge of fossa olecrani with the caudal edge of epicondylus lateralis of the right humerus, especially in the distal part. Also, a large calcification area of 5,51 mm width and 14,69 mm length which was overflowed towards the lateral was determined just above the epicondylus medialis of the same humerus. In addition, a wide range of small calcification areas were determined inside the fossa radialis and fossa olecrani. In left humerus, only a few small calcification areas were observed in fossa radialis. In addition to this, these calcification areas may be formed depending on the age of animal}, number={4}, publisher={Ankara University}
