* Animal Births are Diverse: Different species have different birth processes. Some animals give birth to live young (mammals), others lay eggs (birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish), and some have more unique methods (insects, invertebrates).
* Multiple Roles: Many people are involved in the care and delivery of baby animals:
* Veterinarians: They help with births in domesticated animals (like pets, farm animals) or wildlife.
* Farmers: They care for pregnant animals and assist with births on farms.
* Zookeepers: They monitor pregnant animals, assist with births, and care for the offspring.
* Wildlife Biologists: They study and sometimes help with wildlife births in the wild.
* Animal Breeders: They specialize in specific breeds and assist with controlled breeding and births.
