* Standing – cow, ewe, goat, mare
* Recumbant (lateral) – sow, bitch, queen
* Multiple young soon develop teat order
* ‘Maternal bonding’ - critical timing influences chance of fostering
* Head butting (‘tap’ reflex) esp. in sheep
* Nursing persists for variable times, up to 2 years in horses
* Retrieval behaviour in small animals
* Aggression and defensive behaviour in many species
