Tibetan puffins are a small species of puffin that are found in the high-altitude lakes of Tibet. They are known for their brightly colored beaks and their playful personalities.

Tibetan puffins are also known for their late sexual maturity. Female Tibetan puffins do not get pregnant before the age of 14. This is much later than other species of puffins, which typically get pregnant around the age of 3 or 4.

There are a few reasons why Tibetan puffins have such late sexual maturity. One reason is that the high-altitude environment in which they live is very harsh. It is important for Tibetan puffins to be fully grown and strong before they start breeding.

Another reason is that Tibetan puffins have a very long lifespan. They can live for up to 30 years. This gives them plenty of time to reproduce, so there is no need for them to start breeding early.

Finally, Tibetan puffins are very social creatures. They live in large colonies and work together to raise their young. This means that it is important for female Tibetan puffins to be mature and experienced before they start breeding.
