Creche call-up, Argentina. A Patagonian mara presents its bottom to its mother so she can sniff its identity. Once her twins are identified, she will suckle them near the communal den, fending off other hungry youngsters. Her mate keeps watch for predators. The rest of the creche go to ground immediately if an adult warns that an eagle or fox is about. More than 20 pairs have been known to den together. Such creche denning is unique among mammals and offers a greater chance of survival. (Photo by Darío Podestá/Unforgettable Behaviour/NHM)
