Breeding mount

A breeding mount used to collect semen from horses

In animal breeding, a breeding mount or phantom mount is an imitation of a female animal used to hold an artificial vagina for semen collection, for artificial insemination respectively. The male is encouraged to mount the imitation as if it were real. They are commonly used in conjunction with a real female of the same species nearby, to help bring the male to sufficient reproductive behavior first.[1]
