Withers height (WH), shank circumference (SC), tibia length (TL), and circumference of tibia shaft (CT) are as follows: NLBC-1, 135.6 cm (WH), 20.4 cm (SC), 38.8 cm (TL), 13.6 cm (CT); K, 140 cm (WH), 18.5 cm (SC), 38.4 cm (TL), 13.0 cm (CT); T, 128.8 cm (WH), 17.8 cm (SC), 36.6 cm (TL), 12.0 cm (CT). The arrows indicate medial malleolus and intercondylar eminence. Dashed lines were drawn to facilitate observation.
