Abstract
The present study was performed with the objective to evaluate the effect of scrotal temperature elevation under condition of environmental discomfort (high temperature and humidity) in Santa Ines rams. This inedited study was conducted in Amazonian region during the rainiest period of the year, characterized by high temperature and humidity; condition related to thermal discomfort of the four rams used. The breeding soundness evaluations (BSE) (scrotal-testicular-epididymal biometry and seminal and libido evaluation) were realized before and after the scrotal insulation. The injury resulted in a decrease in the biometric values of scrotal circumference, length, width and testicular volume, between the period of pre-insulation and the one week after the damage (P
