Reproduction control of small mammals is challenging. The purposes are the control of fertility and the reduction of sexual behaviour, aggressiveness and odour. Moreover, some species like ferret females need to be neutered to prevent bone marrow suppression caused by hyperoestrogenism. Many methods of sterilization have been reported, including surgical and chemical techniques. This article describes the reproductive physiology of ferrets and the techniques used to control their reproduction. Some aspects of the use of long-acting deslorelin implants in rabbits and rodents are also described.
小型哺乳动物的繁殖控制具有挑战性。目的是控制生育能力并减少性行为、攻击性和气味。此外，一些物种，如雌性雪貂，需要进行绝育以防止高雌激素血症引起的骨髓抑制。已经报道了许多绝育方法，包括手术和化学技术。本文描述了雪貂的生殖生理学以及用于控制其繁殖的技术。还描述了长效地洛瑞林植入物在兔子和啮齿动物中的使用的一些方面。
