Among mammals one is known to be the father of up to 100 young ones per year from different mothers, who is this busy dude?

a rat!!! literally and figuritively...
-- Melissa (me@home.net), December 21, 2001.
Not a rat. So many of the young fall to predators that Nature had to adapt this replacement system for survival. These critters cannot run very fast.~

Another rodent perhaps, a rabbit. Polly

Assuming you're question is in regards to natural breeding, and not artificial insemination, my guess would be a dominant whitetail buck. --Happy trails, Cabin Fever

I don't know if this will help or not but the young are born very close together timewise.~

kittens

I will further add that each mother usually has only one young at a time.~

Okay, I don't know his name, but I think I saw him on Jerry Springer the other day! LOL!

I think its more likely you saw him on national georaphic herding his ladies.~

Could it be an elephant??

A zebra (travels in herds)

Lets see, can't run very fast, seen on N.G., herd mentality, one offspring per season, one male - one hundred females, is smart enough to be trained to perform tricks.~

I would guess dolphin or whale. But neither RUN at all. Can you give a size?
-- jillian (daffodil_skunk83@hotmail.com), December 21, 2001.
Bigger than a Germain Shepard. Smaller that a whale.

Yes, a common fur seal.
