hindquarter
Back half, anatomically
The hindquarter is the rear portion of an animal's body, including the back legs and adjacent parts.
In butchery, hindquarters are cuts from this section—typically the most muscular meat: a hindquarter of beef.
The word usually appears in plural: The horse's hindquarters were powerful and well-developed.
