Conteúdo:	The recovery of spermatozoa from the epididymis of animals that die suddenly is an alternative to enhance germplasm banks and allow future use for the propagation of wild animals. In this context, the present study evaluated the protective potential of three cryoprotectant media for the freezing of epididymal spermatozoa from Cervus elaphus (Red Deer): 1. Botubov® (20% egg yolk); 2. Criocell 1, based on trehalose, fructose, amino acids, soy lecithin, 7% glycerol, and 10% egg yolk; 3. Criocell 2, same base as Criocell 1, but with 5% egg yolk. Testicles of an adult Red Deer from the Brasília Zoo (DF, Brazil) were transported at 5°C to the Embrapa Cerrados Laboratory. The material was stored for an additional two days at 5°C to simulate prolonged transport. Subsequently, spermatozoa were collected by incising the tail of the epididymis, and sperm motility, vigor (scale 0–5), and concentration were evaluated.
