2007, Archives of Oral BiologyCitation Excerpt :Therefore, it could be speculated that during food ingestion, the pig elongates the tongue forward with the anterior part bending ventrally to pick up food, as indicated by the co-activation of the genioglossus and inferior longtudinalis right after the masseter burst (Fig. 3). This type of tongue behaviour in the pig is more or less similar to the findings in the cat.29 The previous studies indicated that drinking frequency (cycle length) is significantly higher than that of chewing with decreased jaw opening and increased activity in the genioglossus, digastricus and geniohyoideus in awake rabbits and rats.17,39

2006, Journal of Human EvolutionCitation Excerpt :The tongue can be moved upward and pushed against the hard palate. In addition, there is a ventro-dorsal component, which moves the tongue body toward the dorsal pharyngeal wall (cats: Thexton and McGarrick, 1988, 1989; Kobara-Mates et al., 1995; rhesus monkeys: Hiiemae et al., 1995). Whether or not similar movements play a role during vocal behavior is largely unknown.
Correlation between intraoral pressures and tongue movements in the suckling pig
2004, Archives of Oral BiologyCitation Excerpt :In lateral view radiographs this appears as a roughly triangular space, which is delimited by the back of the tongue, the soft palate and the front of the anatomically high epiglottis (Fig. 1); this will be referred to as the “vallecular” space. On the basis of indirect evidence in the cat,7 it has been suggested that the vallecular filling is associated with the cyclical generation of negative pressures in the valleculae. Within a series of suckling cycles there are less frequent cycles during which the vallecular space is emptied, although in the same movement cycle milk is also acquired from the teat.
