Summary Introduction
Introduction:
There are differences in the mating systems in different animals. In some organisms like corals, there is a release of both the gametes in the water or in other organisms the release of gametes is in their surroundings where they live. In some other organisms there is a release of gametes inside the organisms like in most of the mammals while in some other organisms, the release of the fertilization takes place outside the body of an organism. Due to these differences in the mating ways there is a difference in the paternal care of a male organism.

- 1.) Lynx mate in March and have litters of 3 to 5 kittens in May. Lynx kittens are born blind and naked . Their eyes open after 10 days. In 12 weeks , the kittens travel with their mother. They watch and learn how to hunt for hares. Their eyesight is more acute than their hearing or sense of smell. Lynx are active at night (nocturnal). Hares have litters of 2 to 4 offspring, with up to 4 litters over a summer. Hares are born with their eyes open and bodies fully haired. Birth weight doubles in 8 days. Hares use their good hearing and super sensitivity to ground vibrations, as well as speed and coordination, to escape lynx. Hares are active at night and spend the day grooming and resting. A.)
