Sažetak

This study evaluated the pelvic indices and diameters, pelvic area and circumference of the Santa Elena Creole goat in Ecuador. A total of 340 Creole goats between one and three years of age, with one to three parturitions, the last of which was eutocic. The indices and dimensions of the pelvis were determined and compared by means of a simple analysis of variance. Reference values for the screening range were calculated as  ± 1.65 SD. The pelvic indices classify the investigated goats as concavilinear. Pelvic diameters, area, and pelvic circumference in first and second kidding oats were smaller (P
