The present review provides a comprehensive assessment on the basic aspects of the reproduction of the Rangifer male with a special focus on pubertal development, and the seasonal dynamics of gametogenesis, androgenesis, antler cycle and other physiological and behavioural characteristics of the rutting male. A greater understanding of the reproductive physiology of the males is needed to improve existing management strategies of semi-domestic stocks in the changing climate and to develop species-specific assisted reproductive technologies for improving the in situ and ex situ conservation programs to preserve endangered subspecies as well as to facilitate the transfer of genetic resources between fragmented wild or semi-domestic populations.
本综述对驯鹿雄性繁殖的基本方面进行了全面评估，特别关注青春期发育、配子发生的季节性动态、雄激素生成、鹿角周期以及发情期雄性的其他生理和行为特征。为了改进在气候变化情况下对半家养种群的现有管理策略，并开发针对特定物种的辅助生殖技术，以改善原地和迁地保护计划，保护濒危亚种，并促进零散的野生或半家养种群之间的遗传资源转移，需要更深入地了解雄性的生殖生理学。
