Do any animals other than humans undergo menopause?
Also, is there any difference between animals in captivity and animals in the wild as regards menopause? For example, even if menopause has been observed in a captive member of a particular ape species, do individuals of that species typically live long enough in the wild to also undergo menopause?
I guess here's what I'm really getting at: is menopause a common thing in the animal kingdom, or is it only a common thing in humans?
