N2  - There is no doubt that surface anatomy has an important value in veterinary Practice.  Therefore, this work aimed to develop an interactive multimedia computer program demonstrating the surface anatomy of horse pelvic limbs. The various data of the program were obtained from Forty-two pelvic limbs obtained from twenty-one, acceptable ethically  sourced, horses. In addition to three live horses used to record video clip demonstrations. The developed program was based on various Anatomical techniques including preparations of bony skeleton, dissection of fresh and formalin embalmed cadavers, in addition to Elnady Technique preserved specimens. The multimedia assets involved text, images, video clips demonstrating the most prominent and palpable structures on the live animal. The program has a user-friendly interface, allowing ease of navigation. The main  menu presents a button for each region of the pelvic limb including the pelvic, thigh, crural and pes regions. The anatomical structures within each region were categorized into musculoskeletal, vascular, nervous and others. Being available at anytime and anywhere, it encourages continuous learning. Moreover, it enhances active learning by presenting self- evaluation quizzes, in the form of multiple choice and true or false questions. The developed program will be of great benefit not only to veterinary students but to equine practitioners as well.
