The Transverse foramina and the vertebral foramen
All cervical vertebrae have 3 foramina (holes) -- 1 vertebral foramen and 2 transverse foramina. All other vertebrae have only 1 foramen, the vertebral.
Owls have 14 cervical vertebrae, the same as most other bird species.
the first 7 vertebrae, the neck vertebrae, are considered to be cervical
The cervical spine is made up of seven cervical vertebrae. These are numbered(C1-C7) and are the smallest of the true vertebrae. The third through sixth cervical vertebrae have characteristics in common. The first, second, and seventh are considered special cervical vertebrae, and have different characteristics.
Vertebrae are divided into sections: the atlas and axis account for the first cervical vertebrae, of which there are 7 in total; there are 12 thoracic vertebrae, 7 lumbar vertebrae, 1 sacrum (5 separate vertebrae in a baby), and 1 coccyx (4 separate vertebrae in a baby).
The human cervical spine is made up of seven vertebrae. In fact, nearly all mammals have seven cervical vertebrae, even giraffes.
Owls have 14 cervical vertebrae, the same as most other bird species.
The moose has seven cervical vertebrae.Almost all mammals have seven cervical vertebrae. The only exceptions are manatees and sloths.

there are 7 cervical vertebrae in a cat.
Thoracic vertebrae are between the cervical vertebrae and the lumbar vertebrae. The ones farther down the spine are larger. They have facets on the sides of the bodies for articulation with the heads of the ribs.
The atlas and axis are among the cervical vertebrae.
The vertebrae in the neck region are called cervical vertebrae. There are seven cervical vertebrae labeled C1 to C7, with C1 being closest to the skull and C7 being closest to the thoracic vertebrae.
Horses have 7 cervical vertebrae. In fact, most mammals have 7 cervical vertebrae, even giraffes, the bigger the animal the bigger the vertebrae. There are a few exceptions: Sloths have 8 or 9 cervical vertebrae while manatees have only six!
Transverse foramina (on all cervical vertebrae) and bifid spinous process on C2-C6
Fowls, or chickens, typically have 14 cervical vertebrae. This number allows for a greater range of motion in their necks, which is essential for foraging and other behaviors. The cervical vertebrae are elongated and flexible, contributing to the bird's ability to reach and manipulate food.
The cervical vertebrae do not have ribs attached.
