Reproductive states of study individuals observed between April 1, 2014 and June 30, 2018. Fecal samples collection took place between April 29, 2014 and September 27, 2016. Behavioural data collection took place between April 20, 2016 and June 22, 2018. One individual (SF) disappeared from the population in early 2017. Two individuals (NP and VN) reached reproductive maturity during the study, but were never observed to be pregnant. At 15 time points, females were observed to be pregnant via protrusion of the abdomen, but were subsequently observed with no protrusion. In these cases the orange (pregnancy) segments are followed by green (cycling) and not by purple (nursing) segments. Nursing segments that are shorter than 12 months represent cases where infants died. We did not include samples from individuals who experienced potential pregnancy loss in our analysis
