She seems to prefer allowing the little one to manage its own calf muscles.....er...I mean leg muscles which will enable it to haul itself up and stand - after having
its entire life with folded hands & legs
-during gestation
And there are some specimens of one particular species who can't stand on their own legs half of their lives
