The body length, body height,chest depth, chest width, chest circumference, hip length and width, head width and length were taken up for morphometric characterization. Morphometric characteristics data obtained were classified according to sex of the animal. In a total of 24 morphometric study, the means for body length, body height,chest depth, chest width, chest circumference, hip length and width, head width and length were 96.58 ± 7.40; 111.96±8.04; 27.38±3.13; 46.04±5.45; 121.17±15.13; 108.33±8.67; 34.17±4.47; 37.54±4.64; 17.54±3.46, respectively.
