Maternity den

Lair where the mother gives birth and nurtures the young

A maternity den is a lair where a mother animal gives birth and nurtures her young when they are in a vulnerable life stage. While dens are typically subterranean, they may also be snow caves or simply beneath rock ledges. Characteristically there is an entrance, and optionally an exit corridor, in addition to a principal chamber.
