2. Fig. 1
Thermography examination images analyzed on FLIR Quick Report software (FLIR Systems, USA). In (A), dorsal, medium, and ventral temperature mean of each scrotal side were analyzed to obtain scrotal superficies mean temperature (SSMT). In (B), an area located adjacent to left eye was delimited to obtain eye area mean temperature (EAMT).

3. Fig. 2
Mean (and SEM) of scrotal superficies temperature (SSMT) obtained by thermography camera FLIR T620 (FLIR Systems, USA) of rams submitted to scrotal insulation (insulated, n = 17) or not (control, n = 16) on the day that insulation bags were removed (Day 3) and on five successive days (Days 4–8). a,bDifferent letters on each time indicates statistical difference (P ≤ 0.05) between groups. SEM, standard error of the mean.
