All openings of the body that led to the outside are moist with mucus. This includes the mouth and the rest of the digestive tract, the respiratory tract (including the nasal passages), the urinary tract and the reproductive tract. This mucus keeps the tracts from drying out. If they would dry out, microbes could get into the body and cause an infection. The mucus also produces easy passage of products into and out of them.

The lower end of female reproductive tract in pigs is not very different from humans. The reproductive system is conserved across all mammals.
In males, the urethra serves as a common passage for both urine and semen, which allows for direct contact between the urinary tract and reproductive tract. However, in females, the urinary and reproductive tracts do not come into direct contact as they are separate systems with different openings in the body.
In males, the urinary system and reproductive system share the urethra, a tube that carries both urine and semen out of the body. In females, the urinary system and reproductive system are separate, but they are located close to each other in the pelvic area, which can sometimes lead to overlapping symptoms and conditions. Additionally, the proximity of the reproductive organs in females can make them susceptible to urinary tract infections.
Internal fertilization is a process in which the fertilization of an egg by sperm occurs inside the body of a female organism. This typically involves mating or copulation between males and females to transfer sperm to the female reproductive tract for fertilization to occur. Internal fertilization is common in mammals, reptiles, birds, and some fish.
Reptiles, like birds, have a cloaca, which is a single opening through which all wastes are passed, and which also functions as the opening for their reproductive tract.
Because females have a shorter urethra, they have a better chance of getting an urinary tract infection.
The reproductive system of avian females, such as chickens, typically consists of one functional ovary (the left) and an oviduct, where the egg is formed and laid. In contrast, mammalian females possess two ovaries and a more complex reproductive tract that includes a uterus for embryo development. Additionally, birds lay eggs with hard shells, while mammals give birth to live young, relying on internal gestation. These fundamental differences reflect their distinct reproductive strategies and evolutionary adaptations.
Because females have a shorter urethra, they have a better chance of getting an urinary tract infection.
I'd hazard a guess and say the vagina, if you're talking about mammals.
"The reproductive system" is the scientific name. It can also be called the "reproductive tract."
