    Fifteen adult male camels were used in the current study to determine the dimensions of the reproductive organs and correlations with the thoracic cage of the camels. The testicular characteristics measured included scrotal circumference (in situ), paired testicular and epididymal weights, volume and length. This study has provided baseline morphometric data for further studies on the reproductive potentials of male camels in Nigeria.

    (Published by the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Maiduguri, Maiduguri., 2017) Raji, L.O.; Iliyasu, D; Jubril, A.T.; Biobaku, K.T; Ameen, S.A.; Azeez, M.O.; Aremu, A.; Basiru, A.; Akorede, G.J.; Maina, A.V.
    This study was designed to investigate the value of honey as a potential fertility booster in west african dwarf bucks. 12 WAD bucks were divided into groups A and B i.e treated and untreated groups respectively. Findings suggest honey is a potential fertility booster in WAD bucks. We therefore recommend its inclusion in the diet of WAD bucks for breeding programme.
