Pro-oestrus NOT a characteristic includes which option?

Explanation:
Pro-oestrus is the phase before the animal is sexually receptive. Hormonal changes cause the vulva to swell and a vaginal discharge, often blood-stained, to appear. The female may attract males but will not yet allow mating; receptivity and standing to be mated occur during the next phase, oestrus. So the statement about actively mating with the male is not a feature of pro-oestrus, making it the NOT characteristic.
