'''Live-birth''' is the process by which offspring are brought into the world following internal fertilization. This form of reproduction is distinguished by the offspring's development within the parent's body, culminating in delivery through an orifice commonly referred to as the birth canal. For most [[Near-Human]] species, this structure is the vagina; however, other anatomical structures, such as cloaca or species-specific birth canals, are also observed across alien taxa. | '''Live-birth''' is the process by which offspring are brought into the world following internal fertilization.
