为什么有些母猫会杀死自己的幼崽?

in cn •  3 months ago 

小猫体弱或有缺陷:
如果母猫发现小猫有严重的健康问题,如先天缺陷、虚弱、疾病等,如果母猫认为幼崽无法存活,可能会选择杀死它。这是出于一种本能,即集中资源抚养那些健康且有较高生存机会的幼崽。
环境压力:
如果母猫感到环境不安全,或她自己处于极大的压力下,她可能会杀死自己的小猫。这种情况可能发生在母猫感受到威胁、食物匮乏、环境不适或频繁被打扰时。
人类干预:
过多的人类干预,比如频繁接触小猫或不断更换它们的栖息地,
也可能导致母猫感到不安,从而出现这种行为。
产后问题:
有些母猫在分娩后可能会出现产后抑郁或其他健康问题,影响她
们的正常行为,导致她们杀死或遗弃小猫。
