ELI5 Why does some species have special mating seasons but humans don't?

The mating seasons are an evolutionary adaption. It is better to have babies during certain parts of the year then others. It is very hard to find food during winter so raising a kid during winter may not be possible. So animals who get pregnant in time for birth during the spring have a much higher chance of these growing up and allow these genetic traits to continue.

Animals who live in areas without big seasonal variations however do not have mating seasons as this does not give much of an advantage. Humans evolved in the African jungle and steppes and thus does not have mating seasons either. We have not lived long enough in the temperate areas to have developed mating seasons. Part of this might be that humans are very smart and resourceful and therefore have been able to save food and make comfortable shelters for the winter months, and even do more conscious family planning that does not rely on pure instincts.
