This research used 94 heads of male buffalo in range I0, I1, I2, I3 age categories. The body parameters of this research consisted of 11 parameters. The experiments used allometric model (y = a.ebx) to study the growth patterns of bones buffalo. The results showed that the growth impetus of bones moved from the distal (os metacarpus and os metatarsus) toward proximal regions (back) and from the sacral toward to thoracic regions. The growth of bones ended at spine region (b>1). Study of skeletal growth in livestock (buffalo) could predicted the age of livestock based on physiological maturity of carcass.
