If you think your upbringing was way too strict – look at these animals who have to go through really hard times in the young days. Female horses – or mares – have a gestation period of about a year, and elephants carry their young for up to 22 months before giving birth. Unlike the other animals, who prefer to rest waiting for their cub to arrive, for mares, pregnancy means party time! Female cuckoo birds are famous for abandoning their chicks before even hatching. A female house sparrow is a good, caring mom, but also a furious stepmother who might terrify even Cinderella. #brightside Animation is created by Bright Side. —————————————————————————————- Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD34jRLrMrJux4VxV Subscribe to Bright Side: https://goo.gl/rQTJZz —————————————————————————————- Our Social Media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brightside Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brightside.official TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@brightside.official?lang=en Stock materials (photos, footages and other): https://www.depositphotos.com https://www.shutterstock.com https://www.eastnews.ru —————————————————————————————- For more videos and articles visit: http://www.brightside.me
