the volume of semen in animals does not exceed 300 ml in horse compared with its size
Fluids are added to sperm in the pelvic urethra during the process of ejaculation. Various accessory gland fluids are added to sperm beginning
with the prostate fluids, the vesicular gland fluids and then the bulbourethral gland fluids. All of these glands add substances to
the ejaculate that serve to increase volume, protect sperm cells, and provide nutrients needed for ensuring sperm fertility.
i think this large volume of semen because of the ejaculation method in pigs
to increase the probability of pregnancy. many babies are given in a single birth
The biggest volume of semen are in the pigs as result of increase the fluid in the semen and this will aid the sperms to reach to side of fertilization , these results as an production of vesicular gland,Prostate, this will provide a protection to sperms and a valuable sufficient quantity of nutrient material for feeding sperms
thank you dr. Ahmad Hadi Almahdawii for your answer, well, why pigs are unique in this volume , volume in bull is 1-5 ml
I think that this is great sperm plasma size compared with other animals . Due to large secretions glands of the male reproductive system.
