The aim of this study was to study the bones of forelimb of feral pigs. For this purpose, 3 feral pigs were used.

It was seen that the infraspinous fossa was wider than the supraspinous fossa. Tuber spina scapulae was evident. Acromion was rudimentary.

The greater tubercle was curved towards the lesser tubercle. A supratrochlear foramen was present in the distal end of humerus.

Radius and ulna was fused so that no movement was present between them. It was observed that the ulna was thicker than the radius.

In ossa carpi, four proximal and four distal carpal bones were found. Four metacarpal bones were present and each of them had three phalanx in the thoracic limb.
