digestive/alimentary system

abnormal anus morphology ( J:14985 )

• the often slit-shaped anus is posterior to normal location, often on the tail, extending sometimes to half the length of the tail

• mice with this feature may or may not have a short tail or a hook-tail

• anus tends to be bare rather than surrounded by hair

limbs/digits/tail

short tail ( J:14985 )

• this feature is variable

kinked tail ( J:14985 )

• end of tail is fishhook-like

• length and degree of bending is variable
