These are complete bones in the ox but are entirely fused. There is a proximal and distal '''interosseous spac'''e which are the only two places where the shafts are seperated. The ulna's proximal end is caudal to the radius and it's distal end forms the '''lateral styloid process''', distal to the radius and articulating with the ulnar carpal bone.
