animals

Further, there is the following diversity observable in wombs as
compared with one another: namely that the females of horned
nonambidental animals are furnished with cotyledons in the womb when
they are pregnant, and such is the case, among ambidentals, with the
hare, the mouse, and the bat; whereas all other animals that are
ambidental, viviparous, and furnished with feet, have the womb quite
smooth, and in their case the attachment of the embryo is to the
womb itself and not to any cotyledon inside it.
