ivadék

Ivadék is a Hungarian term used to refer to offspring or progeny, particularly in the context of animals. It encompasses the young of various species, from domesticated animals like dogs and cats to livestock and even wild animals. The word is often used in agricultural or veterinary settings to denote young animals being raised.

In a broader sense, "ivadék" can also be used metaphorically to describe the descendants or products of something. For instance, one might refer to the "ivadék" of a particular idea or movement, meaning its successors or followers. However, its primary and most common usage remains in reference to young animals. The term carries a sense of the natural continuation of a species or lineage.

The concept of "ivadék" is central to animal husbandry and breeding programs, where the health, development, and genetic quality of young animals are carefully monitored. It also plays a role in wildlife management and conservation efforts, focusing on the reproductive success and survival rates of young animals in their natural habitats.
