Wild Turkey Femur – Thigh Bone

🦃 Genuine wild turkey femur

The wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) femur is the thigh bone, located between the hip and knee. It features a slightly curved shaft and widened ends with distinctive joint surfaces.

An interesting specimen for exploring bird skeletal anatomy and expanding a natural bone collection.

🦴 A bone connecting the pelvis to the knee

The rounded head of the femur articulates with the pelvis at the hip. At the opposite end, the condyles form part of the knee joint.

Its bony features also provide attachment points for muscles and ligaments that help support and move the leg.
