The western spotted skunk is a seasonally breeding mammal: most copulations occur in late September and early October. This study was performed to characterize the seasonal changes in concentrations of testosterone and in ejaculate quality. Captive males (n = 22) were maintained on a natural photoperiod for 15 months. Semen samples were collected by electroejaculation; testis size was measured; and blood samples were collected. Of 110 electroejaculation attempts, 104 (95%) resulted in successful fluid ...

Abstract Experiments were conducted to develop a suitable protocol for cryopreservation of spotted skunk semen. Semen was collected by electroejaculation of captive male skunks (n = 16) from late January through late November. In the first experiment, fresh semen was diluted in either TEST (n = 10), TRIS (n = 9), or BF5F (n = 7) extenders and maintained at 4°C for 16 hr. Sperm motility in these extenders was not significantly different before cooling ( P = 0.71), but samples diluted with BF5F exhibited significantly ...
