The preorbital gland is a paired exocrine gland found in many species of hoofed animals, which is homologous to the lacrimal gland found in humans. These glands are trenchlike slits of dark blue to black, nearly bare skin extending from the medial canthus of each eye. They are lined by a combination of sebaceous and sudoriferous glands, and they produce secretions which contain pheromones and other semiochemical compounds. Ungulates frequently deposit these secretions on twigs and grass as a means of communication with other animals.

  • A glândula pré-orbital é uma glândula exócrina par encontrada em muitas espécies de ungulados, homóloga à glândula lacrimal humana. Essas glândulas são fendas de cor azul a preta, perto de porções de pele nua se estendendo a partir do do olho. Ela é uma combinação de glândulas sebáceas e glândulas sudoríparas, e secreta feromônios e outros componentes. Ungulados frequentemente depositam essas secreções em galhos como forma de comunicar-se com outros animais. (pt)
