Entries from the front include measurements for individual specimens, with sex, measurements (horns, total, shoulder, girth, hind, ear, tail), weight, sometimes notes on location in reference to observer, appearance, and anatomy including sexual characteristics. Some include additional measurements, time of day. Entries from the back are per identifier (e.g. FG7) followed by a list of descriptions of appearance including color.
