Resumo: | The wild felines comprise one of the animal groups under the greates risk of extinction. This case report aimed to describe the morphology of the reproductive organs of a male, adult tiger (Panthera tigris) that died during a surgical procedure. Fragments from scrotum, testis, epididymis, ductus deferens and penis were collected to macroscopic and microscopic analyses. Histologically, the reproductive organs were similar to other felines. The testis showed lateral asymmetry, with gonadosomatic index as 0.04, and the diameters presented by the seminiferous tubules and epididymal ducts were similar to those described for other species of wild felines. The penile urethra presented diameter of 1.73 mm and high caliber. The penis showed cornified papillae on the glans and other anatomical features described was similar to other felines.KEYWORDS: anatomy; histology; male reproductive system; wild felines. |

Este estudo descreveu a morfologia dos órgãos reprodutivos de um tigre (Panthera tigris) macho, adulto, cujo óbito ocorreu em procedimento cirúrgico. Fragmentos do escroto, testículos, epidídimos, ductos deferentes e pênis foram coletados para análise macroscópica e microscópica. Histologicamente, os órgãos reprodutivos foram semelhantes aos de outros felinos. Houve simetria testicular antimérica com o índice gonadossomático de 0,04%, sendo os diâmetros dos túbulos seminíferos e ductos epididimários semelhantes ao descrito em felinos silvestres. A uretra peniana com diâmetro de 1,73mm mostrou-se mais calibrosa. O pênis apresentou papilas cornificadas na glande, sendo as demais características anatômicas semelhantes a outras espécies felinas.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: morfologia; felinos silvestres; sistema reprodutor masculino.
