Example female Tasmanian devils usually outlive the males as babies. Same with some species of sharks. How come this doesn’t create natural populations problems or does it?
In: Biology
Monogamy isnt super common in most species. And one male can get a lot of females pregnant or fertilize their eggs (depending on what kind of reproduction we are talking about)
Even with humans, which the majority likes to claim is a monogamous species, you hear all the time about men who have children who are half-siblings born close together. (both as part of a multiple partners household and as “my husband cheated on me, I found out when we were both pregnant at the same time” type stories)
