Adult female, first pregnant, then with infant?

    I am just trying to sort some of the females, especially with a Shani/Elisa connection. So, while looking into the videos, I recognized that the female from ACP0002j3g (without any infant, but with a heavy belly, so she might be pregnant) has a very distinctive sexual swelling and gray back (May 2013) that I find very much similar to the new mother (August 2013) in ACP0002hu9. Even the folding looks very similar and if she is in the late stages of a pregnancy and later a new mother, I guess, we are not expecting any cycling, i.e. no real change.

    There isn't any face view, but if that match is true, it tells us that this female has a damaged right ear, but an undamaged left one. Which on the other hand excludes e.g. ACP00021n1 as a matching partner.

    I think the dates make sense, but I find that these two ladies show different back color patterns. Without a face or right ear view, it´s too risky to claim a match based only on gestation period 😦

    Really? I find their backs totally alike. Hm. I will work on that.
