This study used male genital organ that has been preserved with paraformaldehide 4%. The acquired data were analyzed descriptively. Result of this research showed that the length, diameter, and weight of testis without scrotum were 5.01 cm, 2.45 cm, and 1.88 g, respectively. A pair of vesicular gland situated at lateral of ampullae, was 2.25 cm in length, 0.64 cm in height, and weighed at 2.06 g. The prostate gland was not observed macroscopically. Bulbourethral gland has diameter 1.61 cm, height 0.71 cm, and weight 2.39 g. Penis of male muntjac was 30.50 cm in length, fibroelastic, and had sigmoidea flexure.
