HOW COMMON ARE GAY ANIMALS?
*Note: We tentnally do not e terms such as “heterosexual” or “homosexual” to prevent any nflatn between human sexualy and nonhuman animal sexual behavrs. However, scientific quiry to such behavrs didn’t happen until relatively recently due to historilly pervasive, negative attus towards homosexualy humans.
New work by evolutnary blogists suggts that perhaps, bld by historil homophobia, we have been askg the wrong qutn all along.
In other words, rearchers assumed that homosexual behavr only happens when animals are isolated om members of the oppose sex. On the other hand, bee female maqu will reproduce wh mal throughout their lifetime regardls of their tert homosexual behavr, the end the relatnships do not acce any st to lifetime reproductn. From the middle of October until next summer the Norwegian Natural History Mm of the Universy of Oslo will host the first exhibn that foc on homosexualy the animal kgdom.
