Why are calves so large when they are born?

Selection for calves that are growthier and have larger weaning weights tends to correlate birth weights. Breeds that are known to have such calves, like Charolais and Simmentals, will often have big calves. Also, feed that is high in nutritional value given to cows close to calving will also result in large calves. Large calves also tend to come about during during winter than in the summer. Thus it's all down to genetics and breed, as well as feed and environment that determines size of calves when they're born.

How long is the gestation period of a Savannah cat?

It is actually almost impossible to get offspring from a Savannah cat due to the rarity of producing a Savannah cat in the first place, and the fact that they are not a breed, but rather a cross-breed between the wild Serval cat and the domestic cat. Since these cats are very picky about who they choose as their mate, they will often not choose to breed with a domestic cat, but rather a wild Serval. The gestation period of this composite breed has not been mentioned on many breeding sites, but it's best to guess that a Savannah cat may have a gestation period of around 70 to 75 days.

Eggs are the origins of white grubs. The animals in question function as the larval stage of insects such as Japanese beetles whose life cycles and natural histories ensue from a series of breeding culminating in eggs that hatch into immature stages that metamorphose into mature stages that mate. They represent dual-functioning members of feeding chains and food webs whose position description includes experience as prey to foraging amphibians, birds, mammals and reptiles and expertise as predators of gardens, lawns, meadows, pastures and yards.
