 Seasonal Breeders
Animal species that are reproductively active for
.only a part of each year

:Short-day breeders-1
( Sheep and Goats )

:Long-day breeders-2
( Horse )
 Seasonal Breeders
Pineal gland produce Melatonin that regulates
seasonal breeding activity in short-day and
long-day breeders,by shortening and
lengthening of the day light period
.(photoperiod)
