RESUMO
The brown brocket deer is in risk of extinction in two brazilian states. Therefore, more studies on semen evaluation may be useful to improve male reproductive capacity assessment. In this sense, this study evaluated the sperm viability using eosin-nigrosin and compared the results of fresh and cooled semen samples. Although the viability decreased in cooled semen, it maintained a satisfactory result.
