Rump (animal)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from
Haunch)
Jump to: ,
The rump is anterior to the animal's tail (here on a
draft horse)
The rump or croup, in the external
morphology of an animal, is the portion of the
posterior dorsum that is
posterior to the
loins and
anterior to the
tail.
Anatomically, the rump corresponds to the
sacrum.
The tailhead or dock is the beginning of the tail, where the tail joins the rump. It is known also as the base or root of the tail, and corresponds to the human
sacrococcygeal symphysis. In certain
mammals the tail may be said to consist of the tailbone (meaning the bony column, muscles, and skin) and the skirt (meaning the long hairs growing from the tailbone). In birds, similarly, the tail consists of tailbone and tailfan (tail fan).
Anatomy of the horse, rear view
Some animals are subjected to
docking, the
amputation of the tailbone at or near the dock. These include
dogs,
cats,
sheep,
pigs, and
horses. Humans have a remnant tail, the
coccyx, and the human equivalent of docking is
coccygectomy.
