Much can be learned about quadruped anatomy from household pets such as dogs and cats by
simply feeling where the joints move and articulate . . . can't be done on a Grizzly or Cougar!

Over the years, I have collected many books about anatomy that are housed in the library at my Wyoming headquarters. Although I don't keep an extensive library at the cabin studio in Canada, There are several books that are indispensable
. . .  two are shown below, along with a wildlife artists' best friend . . . Zoobooks.

For additional anatomy reference, see posts, #616, and #655
