Caudofrontal Depression on the Cornual End of the Temporal Line of the Skull of Goat Breeds in Nigeria

A comparative study of skull types was done using 65 skulls obtained from three different goat breeds in Nigeria namely; Red Sokoto, Sahel and West African Dwarf. A unique depression was consistently found at the cornual end of the temporal line of the skull medial to the middle portion of the cauda...
