Goslin reproductive periods

Goslins’ lifespan can be divided into juvenile, reproductive and post-reproductive phases.

This is an example of what a graph depicting their life cycle would look like (they breed for about 9 years until they are 10 years old):

Goslins breed seasonally, with overlapping generations.

Other species, both on Astakos IV and on Earth, can have different reproductive phases, with one or more reproductive events and where generations may or may not overlap:
