Abstract
From a study of 10 adult sheep it may be concluded that the rumen receives its entire arterial supply from two vessels, the right and left ruminal arteries. The abomasum is richly supplied by the common hepatic and left gastric arteries. In all 10 dissections, the entire arterial supply to the ruminant stomach originated from a single artery, the celiac-cranial mesenteric trunk.
