A cat's lower jaw, also known as the mandible, is the bone that forms the lower part of its jaw structure. It is connected to the skull at the temporomandibular joint, allowing for movement during activities like eating and grooming. The lower jaw houses the lower teeth and plays a crucial role in a cat's ability to catch and chew food. Its unique structure aids in their predatory behavior, enabling them to deliver a powerful bite.
