Abstract : Objective: This study aimed to determine the anatomical and histological structure of the uterus of the Anatolian wild goat. Materials and Methods: Measurements were taken from the uterine segments using digital calipers. Results: The mean length of cervix uteri was 33.99 ± 1.22 mm, width of the cervix uteri was 13.39 ± 0.92 mm, thickness of the cervix uteri was 8.42 ± 1.68 mm and weight of the cervix uteri was 5.45 ± 0.80 g. The mean corpus uteri length was 29.61 ± 5.14 mm, corpus uteri width was 21.22 ± 1.98 mm, corpus uteri thickness was 9.05 ± 1.45 mm and corpus uteri weight was 4.30 ± 0.77 g. The mean cornu uteri length was 41.34 ± 8.02 mm, the cornu uteri width was 12.49 ± 2.59 mm, the cornu uteri thickness was 6.73 ± 0.86 mm and the cornu uteri weight was 5.46 ± 0.31 g. Histologically, the uterine tissue was consist of three different regions, namely, cervix uteri, corpus uteri and cornu uteri also this parts were composed of endometrium, myometrium and perimetrium layers were located from the inside to the outside. Conclusion: In conclusion, the findings of this study related to the Anatolian wild goat, which contributes to the wildlife diversity in Turkey, however, the population of which has been decreasing due to illegal and uncontrolled hunting or traffic accidents in recent years.
