Discussion
- Males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} only
- Slow foetal development is assumed
- mod_1: males have equal state variables at b, compared to females
Facts
- A pregnant female is capable of extending her gestation period by up to 2 weeks if the start of the summer rains are latewhich will result in poor grazing value and thus poor nutritional value of her milk produced (Ref: wildlife)
