Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite, April 2015. Adviser: Chester Joshua V. Saldafia, DVM, MS A study was conducted to determine the gross, histologic and histochemical characteristics of reproductive organs of common palm civet (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus) by morphometry and microscopic examination using various stains. A male and female common palm civets accidentally caught were used in the study. Morphometric features were taken and reproductive organs were collected, identified, and measured. Tissue samples were harvested and processed using Hematoxylin and Eosin, Van Gieson, Alcian Blue at pH 2.5 and 1.0, and Periodic Acid-Schiff as stains. Microscopic examinations were done at different magnification and features were observed and noted. The common palm civets have a long body covered with gray to light brown hair with three black stripes at the tail. The total length of the male common palm civet was 106.8 cm and 95.9 cm for female weighing 3.1 kg and 2.9 kg, respectively. The sample animals were identified as adult but lighter than the reported values.

A study was conducted to determine the gross, histologic and histochemical characteristics of reproductive organs of common palm civet (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus) by morphometry and microscopic examination using various stains.

A male and female common palm civets accidentally caught were used in the study. Morphometric features were taken and reproductive organs were collected, identified, and measured. Tissue samples were harvested and processed using Hematoxylin and Eosin, Van Gieson, Alcian Blue at pH 2.5 and 1.0, and Periodic Acid-Schiff as stains. Microscopic examinations were done at different magnification and features were observed and noted.

The common palm civets have a long body covered with gray to light brown hair with three black stripes at the tail. The total length of the male common palm civet was 106.8 cm and 95.9 cm for female weighing 3.1 kg and 2.9 kg, respectively. The sample animals were identified as adult but lighter than the reported values.

The testis is a paired, white colored oval gland with firm consistency with epididymis on its dorsolateral border enclosed within the scrotum outside the abdominal cavity.

On the other hand, a paired oval ovary of the female is located in the pelvic cavity caudal to the kidney which is bilaterally flattened, concealed in an ovarian bursa. A tubular organ that lies to the dorsal surface of the small intestine comprised of distinct regions: the uterus and vagina. Histologically, the testis, epididymis and the ovary of the
