Evaluation of two diluents for the storage of fresh and cryopreserved semen of Harris hawk (Parabuteo unicinctus)
ABSTRACT Seminal storage, both fresh and cryopreserved, has contributed to the reproduction of wild birds in captivity, however, a method of predicting the fertilization capacity is needed. Indicators of the sperm acrosome reaction (AR) have been associated with its fertilization capacity. Therefore...
