                    Figure 10-8 • A, Close-up, ventrodorsal and lateral, wings-up (B) views of a hawk with a 2-month-old, nonhealed right coracoid fracture.
                    Note that in the ventrodorsal projection there appears to be ample callus, but in the lateral projection the fraud is revealed: There is no
                    purposeful callus. All of the new bone has been formed away from the fracture where it will do nothing to solidify the break.
