A Post-Partum maniacal reaction to the death of her foal. It happens a bit in animals like dogs and cats, and even rabbits—most often to young or first time mothers. Instinctually speaking, it’s a way to return lost nutrients back to the parent. In a sapient creature it’s a sub-conscious response to the loss of the child—trying to “put it back inside” where it was “safe.”
