Kuyaphawuleka ukuthi imikhuba yabesifazane yokudla yehluke kancane kuleyo yabesilisa. Ngenkathi abesilisa bedla izinhlanzi namagundane ezimweni ezingavamile kakhulu, abesifazane bathanda lezi zilwane ezincelisayo njengokudla kwabo okuyinhloko.

Ukubhangqa okuvelayo kuhlangene izinsuku ezingama-20 kuya kwezingama-80, kuya ngobude bomjikelezo we-estrous. Ngemuva kokuphela komjikelezo, owesilisa uyashiya insikazi futhi aqhubeke nempilo yakhe eyedwa. Isikhathi sokukhulelwa kwamahlosi aseBengal sithatha izinsuku ezingama-98 kuye kwezingu-110. Kusuka emazinyane amabili kuya kwamane anesisindo esifinyelela ku-1300 amagremu. Amakati azalwa eyimpumputhe futhi engezwa nhlobo. Ngisho nezilwane ezincane azinawo amazinyo, ngakho-ke zincike ngokuphelele kowesifazane. Umama uyayinakekela inzalo yakhe, bese eyondla ngobisi izinyanga ezimbili, bese kuqala lapho ukuyondla ngenyama.
Kuphela ngamasonto amathathu okuphila lapho amawundlu eba namazinyo obisi, bese eshintsha ngama-canine ahlala njalo anezinyanga ezintathu.
