Female Infanticide?

Hamsters?

Well, I do not know much about it, since I have it from secondary sources only, but some people who have hamsters as their pets told me that it is quite common that female hamster eats her offsprins immediatelly (or very soon) after birth. So my "very short" remark was meant only as a suggestion for farther research. If this "story" is true, I am sure there would be some sources on the net about it.------------------

This thread was about infanticide among animals only, I think.
Among humans, it is much worse, I am affraid. Infanticide was commonplace in Victorian England.
Nowadays infanticide is nothing unusual in China and India - in China they kill girls because only 1 child is "recommended" - and boys are more desireble, in India they kill girls because they would cost dawry if grown up.------------------
