This study was carried out in order to reveal the macroanatomical structure of the bones that form the forelimb extremity skeleton in Hasmer and Hasak sheep breeds. In the study, five Hasak and five Hasmer sheep taken from Konya Bahri Dağdaş International Agricultural Research Institute Directorate, Experimental Animal Unit Unit were used. Forequarters taken from sheep were dissected using maceration techniques and their photographs were taken after macroanatomical examination. It was determined that the forelimb bones of Hasmer and Hasak sheep breeds consisted of scapula, humerus, radius, ulna, ossa carpi, ossa metacarpalia and ossa digitorum manus from proximal to distal. As a result of the measurements made on scapula bones, it was seen that the fossa infraspinata and fossa supraspinata of the Hasmer sheep breed were slightly larger than those of the Hasak sheep race. Humerus sulcus m. It was determined that brachialis was present in both races. It was determined that caput radii, which is the enlarged upper part of the radius, was wider in the Hasmer sheep breed, and the fovea capitis radii in its proximal was slightly deeper than the Hasak breed. It was determined that the tuber olecranii found in the ulna bone was more voluminous in the Hasmer race. Os carpi intermediale was found to articulate with os carpi radiale and os carpi ulnare on both sides with the radius on the proximal side, and with the bone and os carpale IV consisting of os carpale II and III fusion on the medial side. Tuberositas ossis metacarpalis, located in the dorsal of the upper end of the metacarpal bone, was seen in both sheep breeds. Processus extensorius found in Phalanx distalis was determined to be more raised in Hasmer sheep breed than Hasak sheep breed. In this study, great similarities were found between the macroanatomical structures of the findings obtained in the comparison of forelimb bones of Hasmer and Hasak sheep. It was concluded that the results of the research will be used as a reference for other macroscopic and surgical studies.
