And then once you've successfully mated and it's time to hatch, testosterone drops.

Right.

Because it's somewhat costly for the body to maintain high testosterone.

Like it costs your immune system.

It's taxing.

And you don't really need it if you have already completed mating.

Right.

And in humans, too, like it shifts depending on your strategy.

If your goal is to have as many offspring as possible, like you just want to spread your seed as widely as you can.

you want jacked up tea, right?

Because you want to be out there like competing for status, looking for mates.

But now we have this kind of more modern version of parenthood that's high investment and high nurturing.

And so it's less about quantity and it's more about quality.

Like we want to put our resources into just a couple kids who will survive to adulthood as opposed to like just trying to max out the numbers, right?

To kind of like play the odds.

Yeah, totally.

So it's altricial versus precocial.

So the precocial birds, shoot, which I might have to Google.

Yes.

Right?
