What is the approximate position of the proximal end of the femur?

At the hip joint region; approximate location because the femoral head/neck are inside the acetabulum. The greater trochanter is the surface landmark you can palpate

What is the accurate position of the distal end of the femur?

At the stifle (knee) joint; accurate location because you can palpate the patella, femoral condyles, and trochlea directly
