Whether females breed in their natal group is an important factor in the evolution of extended families in animal sociality.

Studying the consequences of breeding in the natal versus another group provides insight into the decisions and trade-offs governing the formation and structure of family groups. We investigated the family dynamics of a population of free-ranging commensal house mice. Using dynamic
