The corpus striatum of the cerebral hemisphere is carrying out automatic reflexes responsible for feeding, defence, and maintainance of pusture. Our studies were applied on 60 heads of goats from both sexes which were collected from Damanhour sloughter house and injected by 10% formalin through the common carotid artery and put in 10% formalin solution for 1 week. The corpus striatum consists of great basal nuclei and capsules, caudate nucleus, lentiform nucleus, claustrum, capsula interna, capsula externa, and amygdaloidea.
