The primary reason courtship behaviors usually happen in response to seasonal changes is to ensure that offspring are born in optimal survival conditions. Seasonal changes often influence factors such as food availability, weather conditions, and habitat suitability, all of which can significantly impact the survival of offspring. By timing mating and the resultant births to coincide with favorable conditions, species can increase the likelihood of their young surviving to adulthood.
