Ruminants have been clasiified as grazer, browser and intermediate type. The study was conducted on Wild Gaur to categorize the feed formulation based on the gross morphological and histological study of the forestomach.Tissue samples from forestomach were taken and observed under stereozoom microscope, later processed and blocked in paraffin wax for histomorphological studies. Histologically, forestomach was made up of stratified squamous keratinized epithelium. The ruminal papillae of the gaur were shorter and broader papillae. The primary crest or taller crest were quite big and were divided into smaller crest but were not distinct. The upper border of the taller crest showed pointed projected long conical papillae. In rumen, lamina muscularis mucosae was absent but found only in primary reticular crest of reticulum and was distinct in omassum. Based on these morphological parameters Wild Gaur can be classified as Intermediate type.
