The cattle from Amsterdam Island (South of Indian Ocean) had been initially introduced as domesticated animals into the island during the XVII century. Later abandoned, the cattle reverted to the wild state (feral animals). This old and hardy livestock has proved to be a reference population on which to do an osteometric study. The skulls of 91 adults (SO females and 41 males) were collected and measured by the anatomy laboratory of the Nantes Veterinary Faculty - France. The data allowed us to do a uni-and multivaried statistical study (single statistics, principal component analysis, disciminate analysis). This study permitted us to define osteomorphometric characteristics of the Amsterdam Island cattle skull : a small long- horned head ...
