3). The herbivore larynx is thus protected anteriorly by a relatively long epiglottis, laterally by high aryepiglottic or epiglottic folds and posteriorly by bulky arytenoid/corniculate cartilage complexes. This circumferential protection is particularly necessary for the ingestion of a purely fluid diet, although in ruminants it is the cellulose remaining in the rumen which is regurgitated. This is not a violent convulsion of stomach contents but a gradual controlled expulsion so the risk of overspill is minimal.

E. ingestion of milk) rather than a need for speedy locomotion or vocalization. The adult larynx has undergone modifications suited to the animals' life-style and these will be examined in detail in subsequent chapters. Not all variations in morphology, however, can be explained on cogent or physiological grounds and these will be discussed in Chapter 6. References Bohme, G. & Hecker, G. (1970).
