Abstract: | This research was conducted to observe the anatomy and morphometry include length, diameter, and weight of the male genital organ from 2-4 years old muntjac (Muntiacus muntjak muntjak) during hard antler period. 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. Generally, anatomy of the male genital organ of muntjac was similar to those of the other ruminants like sheep and goats. However the male muntjac was characterized by relatively small size of testis, rudimentary prostate gland, larger bulbourethral gland, and a relatively long penis. |
