The female will stay with her eggs during the incubation period (around 40 days).
The female does not stay with her young, but instead visits it for just 10 to 30 minutes each day to nurse it.
The females only stay long enough to mate and spawn.
The male will leave through the tunnel, and the female will stay with the eggs.
During this time, the female will stay very close to the egg sac and become more aggressive.
However, females may stay in the home range of their mothers for life while males leave at two years old.
That same female had stayed in the center of the nesting area, too.
Two to seven adult females and one mature male occupy a shared home range, but cannot stay together for too long.
The females stay in their nest tree for up to 11 months of the year.
The female will stay until the larvae are fully developed and then leave for another carcass.
