Digital massage for semen collection, evaluation and extension in Malaysian estuarine crocodile (Crocodylus porosus)
Study in semen of the estuarine crocodiles is limited partly due to the lack of knowledge on the semen collection method and their reproductive biology. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the possibility of semen collection via digital manipulation of the penis. Four matured male croco...
