It is bad example. In general daughters are more guarantee bloodline succes as if they reach adulthood they will most likely rise at least one or two litters to adulthood. They however can raise only one litter at a time. On the other hand males have more difficult time to reproduce, however if they manage to do so they can sire and rise multiple litters at once and because of that provide greater reproduce success than females.
