Why might some mammals pull their testes back into their body in the non-breeding season?
Some mammals retract their testes into their body during the non-breeding season to regulate temperature and protect them from environmental stressors. The testes need to be kept cooler than the body temperature for optimal sperm production; pulling them closer to the body can help maintain warmth during colder months. Additionally, this behavior may serve to protect the testes from injury or predation when they are not needed for reproduction.

What is nonbreeding bird?
The term nonbreeding can apply to birds that are too young to breed and to birds that are acting as helpers to birds (generally their parents) that are breeding, as some species of birds do when they are young. It might also be used to characterize any bird outside of the breeding season. Usually, though, for birds that have different plumages during the breeding and nonbreeding seasons, it applies to the plumage they wear during the nonbreeding season.
What might if the testes were located inside the body?
The sperm cells can not live in an environment that is body temperature. That is why they are usually found outside the body as they like it cooler. They will drop lower on a very warm day and will be pulled closer to the body on a very cold day.It might damage the sperms due to high temperature. Therefore, in most of the mammals testes are located outside the body.
How might cancer of the testes affect a man's ability to make sperm?
It might affect that by making the testes grow uncontrollably so it can't make sperm because it can't sop growing.

Why arent the testes located inside the body?
Your core body temperature would prevent sperm production. Descending from the body cavity keeps the testes cool enough to function. Testicular cancer is said to be another risk, though the medical community is unsure as to whether that is related to the testes being undescended, or more related to the underlying cause of why the testes didn't descend. It is possible that having undescended testes in and of itself is not the cause for testicular cancer in those cases, but the underlying cause for the birth condition. One transsexual person decided to have SRS surgery to have a vagina created without having her testes removed. So she had the surgeon to relocate her testes inside her body. Because of the above concern about cancer, she has ultrasounds down every couple of years to inspect them.

Do all baby mammals have troubles standing up?
No, in the wild some mammals have to stand up right when they are born. It is instinct. This is because of preadators that might hunt them down.
