Figure 7

Age of M1 emergence counted from conception relative to size, as measured by adult body weight (a), and adult brain weight (b) for 67 mammal species. Dotted lines represent doublings in time invested to raise young with first permanent molars. Some species that seem extreme in (a) are less so in (b), but the crowd with investment of ca 11 months remains.
