Generally, mammals are characterised by giving birth to live young. There is a very small group of egg-laying mammals known as monotremes. Monotremes, which include platypuses and echidnas, lay soft-shelled, leathery eggs which hatch after ten days.
They are the only mammals that lay eggs in order to reproduce.
Pigs do not lay eggs. Being mammals, they produce live young.
No. Pirates are human mammals like us. They do not lay eggs.
Monotremes are special because they are a very small group of mammals which lay eggs. Most mammals give live birth, but monotremes lay soft-shelled, leathery eggs in order to reproduce.
No. Rabbits do not lay eggs. They are placental mammals. The only mammals which lay eggs are the monotremes, which include the platypus and the echidna.
Yes, the only living things that don't lay eggs are mammals, plants and molluscs.
Most mammals do not lay eggs at all. Only the monotremes, or egg-laying mammals, reproduce by external eggs. Monotremes include just the platypus, the long-beaked echidna and the short-beaked echidna. These mammals lay eggs just once a year, each breeding season. Platypuses lay 1-3 eggs, while echidnas lay a single egg, just once each year.
No. Hedgehogs are not monotremes (egg-laying mammals), as they do not lay eggs in order to reproduce. They are placental mammals. The only monotremes are the platypus and the echidna.
There are many animals that lay eggs. Mammals do not. Here is a list of a few: Birds and Reptiles are the main animals known to lay eggs. The Platypus, even though it's a mammal, does infact lay eggs. Those are the main groups that I know of.
How do Mammals reproduce? How do fish reproduce? How do Birds reproduce? Sex. Reptiles, like all of the other things I listed. Have sex.
Elephants are mammals Mammals don't lay eggs
No, plants do not reproduce by laying eggs. Birds lay eggs. Plants reproduce through seeds.
