Gestation lasts 38-39 days in non-suckling females and is likely longer in suckling females. Litter size ranges from 1 to 6, with young weaned at 40 days. The oestrus cycle is 7 days, with a post-partum oestrus. Matings start in mid-April and likely continue until August, producing up to three

Major threats include habitat destruction from human activities and damage to regional flora due to fires. However, the population has been on the rebound due to effective conservation efforts. 378:
