Sea slug hermaphrodite life, hooded seal’s giant hood, bower bird’s dance, porcupine’s pee pee ritual...Sex. Mating. Reproduction, these are all vital things for the survival of humans and of course for survival of the rest of the animal kingdom. But don’t be mistaken, animals that have sex for pleasure is very much the exception. Most have brutal, competitive rituals that are extremely dangerous for the female and death for the males through intense competition. As we’ll see, there are so many different ways to get it on. From kangaroos that have three vaginas to giraffes that taste their partners pee to see if she is in heat…making babies in nature can be complicated, horrifying, and romantic all in the same moment, just like an Orangutans barbed penis.
