Pulp cavity width in relation to months after parturition. (A) All mink with a known death date (n = 141). The dotted triangle marks outliers, i.e., individuals with a pulp width of less than 35% before 6 months and individuals with a pulp width less than 25% considered to be born in the years before. (B) Polynomial regression line modeling the pulp cavity width of individuals < one year old in relation to month after parturition was y = 0.42x2 − 11.52x + 104.7, R2 = 0.77, p < 0.0001.
