SSSolved! Even though I didn't see "more to the mechanism" until I went back after browsing the comments.
Bespoke nudges available upon request (if I'm on shore, off the couch, in the castle, petting an un-bagged cat, ...).
Let me know how small or large a hint you want, or hit me with a specific question(s).

REVEAL DAY!
This was a fun puzzle to put together and I thank Cap'N Rick for giving me the opportunity to make a puzzle for this very special day. A lot of people guessed it from the prompt and the posting day, I mean it was posted on Mother's Day. Some thought it was just the preponderance of possible mothers (female animals) and the answer was inferred.
An interesting solve left out DUCK (which is actually the name for the female duck, the male is a drake) and anagrammed the other letters which formed MENSCH and certainly Mom's are all mensches, but that was not THE solve; the actual solve is:
Oh, and if anybody was wondering what exactly the graphic was supposed to be, here it is "unscrambled"
