Centaur Bones
Added 2018-06-06 21:01:00 +0000 UTCTrying to figure out the skeleton for centaurs. They essentially have a fore-pelvis. Also, unlike humans, their nerve column runs below their spinal column.

It's underneath the vertebrae the same way a human nervous cord is on top of our vertebrae! Our nerve cord runs through the vertebral foramen of our spine, which are above the centrum (the round bit of a vertebra). It's encased and protected, but in a flexible way. <a href="http://annahamilton.me/wp-content/uploads/anatomy-of-vertebrae-the-thoracic-spine-google-search-thoracinc.png" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://annahamilton.me/wp-content/uploads/anatomy-of-vertebrae-the-thoracic-spine-google-search-thoracinc.png</a> <a href="https://www.depuysynthes.com/binary/org/DPY_SYN/DPY_SYN_20/Images/Image_10_400pix_DPUSA203.gif" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.depuysynthes.com/binary/org/DPY_SYN/DPY_SYN_20/Images/Image_10_400pix_DPUSA203.gif</a> You could argue centaurs have a better set up than us because their nervous cord is more protected on the underside...
