For this, we used two femaleof Kinosternon scopioides where ultrasounds were performed twice a week. It was found thatgonads havefollicles in different stages of development and it was possible to distinguish follicles from eggs. The study showsimportant to help veterinary wildlife, and the preservation of the species, since the knowledge of reproductivecycle will help in captive breeding of them.(AU)
