The '''reproductive organs of the jack are larger than a stallion’s.''' In the adult North African donkey, the bulbo-urethral gland’s length and width range from 2.8 to 3.5 and 3.5 to 5 cm respectively. The prostate measures 3.8 to 6 cm in length, 2.6 to 3.5cm in width and 1.6 to 2.5 cm in thickness. The vesicular glands (seminal vesicles) measure 5 to 13 cm in length and 2.5 to 4 cm in diameter. The ''ampullae'' of the ''vas deferens'' are 10 to 13.5 cm in length and 1.6 to 2.5 cm in diameter. During erection and ejaculation, the ''glans penis'' presents a more pronounced dilation. Video-endoscopic examination shows a more prominent ''colliculus seminalis''.
