Among the endangered mice, homosexualy was observed and, at the same time, nnibalism creased, spe the fact that there was plenty of food. "Gay" seems like the wrong word here.

There were six behavr variabl noted as the experiment proceed: (1) groomg, (2) homosexualy, (3) nt buildg, (4) retrievg of young, (5) fightg, and (6) mortaly of the young.
It was predicted that groomg, nt buildg, and retrievg of the young would crease equency as the populatn creased, while fightg, homosexualy and mortaly of the young would crease wh the risg populatn nsy. Amics at the Universy of Sydney pared the voic of gay, straight and bisexual men a study volvg 160 the rearch led by clil psychologist Jam Morandi, people were reced to analyse the voic of 60 men, 20 of whom were gay, 20 straight and 20 bisexual.
