Man (Homo sapiens sapiens), Cow (Bos taurus), and Ram (Ovis aries)
The structure of the ruminant animals varies considerably. It’s
important for the artist to recognize the vertebral layout and rib
structure, even of animals that are covered in thick wool or fur. Wild
bovids (such as bison) and aurochs have extended cervical vertebrae that
form a “hump” over their shoulders.
