This anatomical structure is found in a wide variety of animals. It has been found in birds, and in invertebrate animals including gastropods (snails and slugs), earthworms, leeches, and insects. | A [[crop]] (sometimes also called a [[croup]] or a [[craw]], [[ingluvies]], or [[sublingual]] [[pouch]]) is a thin-walled expanded portion of the alimentary tract used for the storage of food prior to digestion.
