Implantation Grizzly Bears Mate July Females Delay Eggs

Grizzly bears exhibit delayed implantation in females if they are not sufficiently fat, demonstrating how reproductive strategies are modulated in response to energy availability.

Beruang grizzly kawin antara Mei dan Juli, namun betina menunda implantasi telur mereka ke rahim sampai Oktober atau November. Implantasi tidak terjadi ketika betina tidak cukup gemuk karena itu menunjukkan makanan terbatas. Ini menunjukkan bagaimana organisme yang berbeda memodulasi strategi reproduksi sebagai respons terhadap ketersediaan energi.

Text Grizzly bears mate between May and July, however females delay implantation of their eggs into the uterus until October or November.  Implantation does not occur when the female is not fat enough because that indicates food is limited.  This shows how different organisms modulate reproductive strategies in response to energy availability.
