Just to respond and agree with Lisa's post...
There may well be the occasional failure of adequate lactation among
animals in the wild, but depending on the species, the young will waste
away and die from lack of feeding. (It is well known that *some*
species will cross-nurse or "wet nurse" young who are not thriving from
their own mom's milk.) The females who bear non-surviving young will
subsequently be less likely to pass on the trait of abnormal physical
structure, hormones, etc. if the cause is genetically-based. Natural
selection at work.
Just my two cents...
