Hembra con cachorro juvenil en madriguera de embalsado y troncos de seibos. Muy cerca de la zona donde el 31 de marzo se identifico una hembra con un cachorro por lo que puede llegar a ser la misma. El cachorro nada con la madre pero aún no se alimenta solo, y en una ocasión se quedó en la madriguera acicalándose; una ves que la madre regresó se escuchó cómo vocalizaba pidiendo alimento. Según las dos observaciones el cachorro tiene aproximadamente 7 meses. Se fotografió a la madre.
