Pseudopregnancy in harp seals (Phoca groenlandica) [PDF]
Reproduction, 1994 Concentrations of circulating progesterone were monitored in a captive breeding group of harp seals. Five females were monitored for 2 years, over which time they either became pregnant (four instances) or displayed an overt pseudopregnancy (five instances). Only one female exhibited consecutive pseudopregnancies.

Social transmission of Pavlovian fear: fear-conditioning by-proxy in related female rats [PDF]
, 2013 Pairing a previously neutral conditioned stimulus (CS; e.g., a tone) to an aversive unconditioned stimulus (US; e.g., a foot-shock) leads to associative learning such that the tone alone will elicit a conditioned response (e.g., freezing).
