Figure 9-5 • Close-up, ventrodorsal view of the distal radius and ulna shows multiple displaced ulnar fractures, in addition to a dislocated
ulnar carpal bone and displaced fractures of both greater and lesser metacarpal bones. This is a probable fl ight-ending injury.
Figure 9-6 • Close-up, ventrodorsal view of a crow shot with
an air gun. The pellet is lodged in the cranial aspect of the left
kidney. As pointed out elsewhere in the text, the tibial fracture
was sustained in the fall that occurred subsequent to being
shot.
