English term or phrase: cohabited (ratas)

"Each female **cohabited** with a proven fertile male on day 8 of treatment (an expected day of proestrus) and was separated from the male 1–3 days later when mating was confirmed by the presence of vaginal sperm or a copulatory plug."

Otro ejemplo:

"Females were **cohabited** with proven fertile males on day 8 of treatment and were removed 1–3 days later after confirmed mating."

En el diccionario de Navarro, vi que en el caso de animales, "cohabit" se usa para decir aparear. Sin embargo, en este caso dicen al final que separan a la hembra del macho cuando se comprueba que hubo apareamiento. ¿Cómo debería traducir "cohabit" en este caso? ¿Sería correcto decir "se juntaron"? Cohabitar como tal me parece que solo se usa para personas.

Además, más adelante usan "mated" y "cohabited" en la misma expresión (no son sinónimos en este caso):

"The number of rats mated/**cohabited** and pregnant/mated, and the mean number of normal conceptuses and
resorbing implantation sites per pregnant rat +/- SE were calculated.
