Answer:

Female mammal nursing her offspring is an example of parental care.

This is a strategy that mammals have to succeed in the survival of their offspring. This parental care such as breastfeeding requires a high energy investment.

This is an evolutionary strategy that seeks to guarantee survival, for this reason mammals have fewer children than other organisms to give each of them a greater chance of survival to reproduce.
