OK, I just compared the graphic you posted with the table I posted a link to.
Graphic says:
Chicken wings: 46% bone
Chicken neck: 36% bone
Chicken breast: 20% bone
Chicken thigh: 21% bone
Chicken leg: 33% bone
Chicken back: 44% bone
The table - which has references - says:
Wings: 30.5% bone
Breast: 14.8% bone
Legs: 18.4% bone
Back: 49% bone
Total: 26.2% bone*
*But the sum of the "total" is just the wings, breast, legs & back. We don't know if leg in this table includes the thigh; and the "total" doesn't include any of the organs, gizzards, etc. So feeding "whole ground animal" chicken, the bone percent is definitely less than 26.2%.
