Viviparous

Viviparous animals give birth to live young instead of laying eggs. Mammals like humans, dogs, and cats are all viviparous. Some reptiles, such as certain species of snakes and lizards and some sharks and rays, are also viviparous. These animals can provide more care to their young than egg-laying animals, as they can nourish and protect them inside their bodies before giving birth. Viviparity is a complex adaptation that has evolved in various animal species, allowing for a diverse range of reproductive strategies and behaviors.
