Description
Figure 2. Fetal growth curve comparison illustrating different growth rates resulting in wide range in estimated gestation length as compared to known gestation length determined in this study. Data from Heide-Jørgensen and Teilmann (1994; dotted line) predicts a gestation length of 310 d for a 150 cm calf and similar to our study used a 2nd order polynomial regression to describe their data. Kleinenberg et al. ([1964] 1969: dashed line) developed a curve of the average monthly embryo/fetal growth. They did not provide the curve, only the predicted age at TL, which we then used to fit to a growth curve, which predicts 150 cm calf as 338 d.
