The present study had been carried out on the thoracic vertebrae of blackbuck. There were thirteen thoracic vertebrae, which were characterized by long spinous process, cylindrical but shorter body and presence of cranial and caudal costal facets on their bodies. The supra spinous processes of the thoracic vertebrae increased in length and breadth up to the fourth vertebra (T4) then gradually decreased. The maximum height of T4 was 9.84 ± 0.028 cm. The backward inclination in the spinous process of thoracic ver-tebrae increased up to the ninth and then de- creased. The greatest length of thoracic vertebrae (T1 to T13) was 30.56 ± 0.115 cm in blackbuck.
