RESUMEN
Con el fin de desarrollar una metodología para entrenar carneros en la recolección de semen
con vagina artificial (VA), montando un objeto inanimado, se utilizaron nueve animales
que se sometieron a cuatro etapas de preparación. La primera con el propósito de
lograr la manifestación del repertorio sexual natural, y el resto para llevar a cabo un
programa de condicionamiento operante: cuando la respuesta correcta (monta) sucedía, en
un inicio provocada por un estado de motivación sexual, se daba un refuerzo positivo o
estímulo incondicionado (eyaculación), con lo que eventualmente y mediante un proceso de
generalización la respuesta condicionada (primero montar a una hembra que no estaba en
celo y luego a un objeto inanimado) se aprendió como la respuesta correcta. Al inicio de
cada fase 33%-55% de los carneros no eyacularon; sin embargo, al final de las fases 1-3,
todos eyacularon al menos una vez, al final del entrenamiento fue imposible recolectar semen
de un macho. Se concluye que mediante la metodología propuesta 90% de los machos
jóvenes pueden ser entrenados para montar objetos inanimados con el fin de recolectar semen
mediante VA.
