===Ruminants===

The '''thyroid cartilage''' in ruminants is completely ventral. A small median ventricle is present in sheep and goats. There is a narrow glottic cleft, making intubation difficult. The larynx is close to the median '''retropharyngeal lymph node''', so enlargement of the lymph nodes may compress the larynx as well as the [[Pharynx - Anatomy & Physiology|pharynx]].

A small laryngeal ventricle is present and there are double corniculate process in the '''arytenoid cartilages'''. Stimulation of laryngeal mucosa can results in violent laryngeal spasms.
