    This is a missing image from a sequence that raised a lot of questions. She's just delivered a baby and spent some time dealing with the afterbirth. We were hoping to find the actual birth sequence, but that apparently happened off-camera, and the baby is off camera as well. Here's the full sequence. CSGS0001d9

    They eat the afterbirth like most animals do (ie cats, dogs etc), probably to make sure it is not around for the predators
    to find and track them down.
