Some animals have a very strange sexual habits, raising the notion of sexuality to a whole new level. Often sex using are not designed for this course, there are large harems and even sexual slavery. We offer a selection of reading for ten amazing and strange way of breeding practiced by animals.

1. Octopus-argonavty



Argonauts - sexually active marine animals, but oddly enough, they never just sex. Instead, they practice body-sex. Male Argonaut releases spermatophores in specially adapted penis, which then separates from the body and floats away to find a suitable female ready to merge with him in the act of love. At the same time the act occurs infrequently at the Argonauts: male takes quite a long time to grow a new penis.

2. Udilschiki



Anglers - the most ardent supporters of masochism in the deep sea. They live at the bottom of the sea and is not covered by the usual scales, and a dense layer of transparent or black and white, like the rough skin material. But that is not all. The male angler - a frail creature, which, however, requires the female sex with considerable passion. At the same time the female during intercourse male swallows, causing fish bodies merge and the sperm enters the female body.

3. Masked savki



Argentine Masked headed duck lives in the mountain lakes of South America, and at first glance looks like any other waterfowl. But in fact it has almost extraordinary features. This bird is rarely grows more than 20 cm in length, but if necessary, may lengthen your penis up to 45 cm. It is not only the biggest sexual organ in birds, but also the largest among all the animals in relation to body size.

4. African tsihlidy



African cichlids never engaged in regular sex, but prefer to exclusively oral. Males of these fish are hatching eggs in the mouth. When the female opens her mouth, the male transfers her eggs. The female bears them in his mouth, even some time later after being hatched fry. This is probably the only species on earth that breeds in a similar way.

5. Gippopotamy



To impress a female, the males are not only close to it, showing its size and strength, but also literally dancing dirty dancing. The female at this time stands still, and when the males are in close proximity to it, then doused her own feces from the shower to her thus identified the healthiest ones.

6. Ploskonos plavunchiki



For breeding these birds doing a journey of 2000 km through the open ocean, and directly in the process of embarking on the cold ground in the Arctic. Females phalaropes have bright plumage, but males, unlike most species of birds, boring and gray. In females during the breeding season may be a few partners - the result is a whole harem.

7. Marine konki



Seahorses mate as well as most other animals. However, the similarity ends. During intercourse, the female is placed in your uterus males, where they combine with the sperm and fertilized. After mating, the female leaves the male that he alone brooding, and then bore him. The male seahorse could eventually have about 200 small fish. It is surprising here is how to change the gender roles.

8. African lvy



Many animals sexually behave like monks. Mating takes place only once a year and lasts long. However, the African lions in such a short period, beat all records. They mate continuously for four days, and can carry out the sexual act 30 times each of those days. Thus lions can have sex anywhere - for example, in the middle of the road.

9. Hlystohvostye yascheritsy



Hlysthvostye lizard - a kind, consists entirely of females. They multiply very surprising way. Instead of just having to mate or both sets of bodies such as the cochlea, these lizards make their own clones. However, in order to stimulate the production of eggs for the development of such a clone, you need a special ritual - so the lizards play a role between the female and male, periodically changing with each other.

10. Kozy



The male goat is definitely cuckolds. First in the literal sense of the word, and secondly because the females often arrange for them a kind of demonstration of the ritual with other females field - in other words, mimic the sexual act to excite the males.
