Comparison of Two Methods for the Measurement of Medial and Lateral Metapodial Bones in Karagouniko Sheep (Ovis aries, L. 1758) and Hellenic Goat (Capra hircus, L. 1758)

Table 4

Mean ± SE of the lengths (cm) of medial and lateral metapodial bones in sheep and goats measured with the 2-dimensional method.

Metapodial bones	Medial	Lateral
Metacarpal sheep	14.55 ± 0.19^a	14.58 ± 0.18^a
Metatarsal sheep	15.70 ± 0.24^a	15.77 ± 0.24^b
Metacarpal goats	11.67 ± 0.15^a	11.71 ± 0.15^b
Metatarsal goats	12.47 ± 0.15^a	12.57 ± 0.15^b

Different superscripts at the same row denote significant difference.
