Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Cat skull X-ray
Cat skull. X-ray of the skull of a domestic cat (Felis catus) seen from the side. The front of the skull is at right. The cat is a carnivore (a meat eater), and the arrangement of its teeth reflect its diet. It possesses long, pointed canines at the front corners of its jaws, which it uses for catching, killing and removing meat from its small prey. The back teeth on the upper and the lower jaw have been modified into carnassials. These give a shearing action used for chewing flesh from bones

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a cat skull, captured through an X-ray imaging technique. The image reveals the side view of the skull, with its front facing towards the right. As a carnivorous creature, this domestic cat (Felis catus) possesses teeth that perfectly align with its meat-based diet. The prominent features of this feline's dental structure are its long and pointed canines located at the front corners of its jaws. These formidable weapons play a crucial role in catching, killing, and extracting meat from small prey. Additionally, both upper and lower back teeth have undergone modifications to form carnassials - specialized molars designed for shearing flesh off bones. Displayed against a dark background, this photograph not only highlights the unique skeletal composition but also offers insights into zoology and mammalian dentition. It serves as a testament to nature's diversity and adaptation within different species. Science Photo Library has expertly captured this intriguing glimpse into the world of cats' anatomy. With no commercial intentions behind it, this image stands as an educational tool rather than promoting any specific product or company affiliation. Whether you're fascinated by wildlife or simply appreciate scientific marvels like skeletal structures, this print is sure to captivate your imagination.
