Out of fifty female genital organs of adult Thari cows collected from Mirpurkhas slaughter-house nineteen (38%) tracts were found apparently normal with no any macroscopic abnormalities and were used for biometrical studies of different parts of the tract. The mean length of vulva, vagina, cervix and corpus uterus was recorded as 10.24, 20.67, 7.80 and 1.7 cm, respectively. Corresponding values for the width were 8.94, 5.08, 2.72 and 2.17 cm, respectively. The mean length of right uterine horn was 21.63 and that of left horn it was 20.90 cm. The mean length of right and left oviduct was 21.78 and 21.31 cm, respectively. The mean length, width and thickness of right ovary was 2.56, 1.33 and 1.46 cm and that of left it was 2.50, 1.3 and 1.4 cm, respectively. The weight of right ovary was 3.83 g and that of left ovary it was 3.58 g in Thari cattle. It was concluded that the right ovary was wider in diameter, larger in length and heavier in weight as compare to left one. This confirms the fact of right ovary being more active than the left one.
