(the ‘pecora’ are an ‘infra-order’ of ‘even-toed hoofed mammals’ with ‘ruminant digestion’ (‘ruminantia’ – a clade within the ‘artiodactyla’))

(most members of ‘pecora’ have ‘cranial appendages’ projecting from their ‘frontal bones’)

(only 2 ‘extant genera’ lack them…)

Hydropotes 

Moschus.

(the name ‘pecora’ comes from the latin word pecus, which means “horned livestock”)

(although most ‘pecorans’ have ‘cranial appendages’, only some of these are properly called “horns”, and many scientists agree that these appendages did not arise from a common ancestor, but instead evolved independently on at least 2 occasions)

.

(likewise, while ‘pecora’ as a group is supported by both ‘molecular’ + ‘morphological’ studies, morphological support for inter-relationships between ‘pecoran families’ is disputed)
