Even the penguins are corrupt and screwed up in New York?

Put the thing in charge of our supply chain logistics. I’m sick of bare shelves.

Question: How do chickens lay eggs without a rooster around?

Hens will lay until they can't anymore. Rooster or no. It's a biological process. You don't need a rooster for eggs, just to have fertilized eggs for the next generation.

I’ve seen this type of delusion before.

They are not “gay”! It is already known that two male penguins will adopt an egg or a young to care for it. Nothing more than a survival strategy. The zoo officials created an artificial situation, and the two responded.

To ask an indelicate question, does the same sex “couple” engage in those practices that human homosexuals engage in? The fact that they hang out together does not indicate that they engage in those practices.

Delusions are not reality.

And how come they use the word “sex” here, and not “gender” as they always do?

But here is what the big cats do NOT do: Stick their penises up another cat’s butt. They may masturbate, etc...but I’ve not heard of a case of anal penetration.

Still, your point is valid. What animals do WHEN CROWDED IN ARTIFICIAL SITUATIONS isn’t “normal”. Any more than a prison is.

I remember when I first experienced gerbils with babies. As you said, the father would sit on the newborns while mama ate and sometimes rested. These male penguins are doing the same thing. They don’t try to mate; they are just roommates.

This is a hit piece from the media to try to go to lengths to show us how animals are gay, too. It’s a choice, people. It’s behavioral. Behaviors are CHOICES. We may all have tendencies of one kind or another, but we have choices that we make every day on which behaviors we will act upon. I am not a tidy, organized person by my nature, but I try to discipline myself to keep things somewhat orderly most of the time.

Patterns in the abuse of language in service to political narratives”

“before letting them take care of a fertilized egg of their own”

It is not “their own”, so says biology.

you mess with the environment of any animal, strange things happen. Stuff a bunch of big cats in a small area and they start exhibiting homosexual behavior...


Like prison..

Melissa appears to be saying that Elmer and Lima took turns incubating the dummy egg until it hatched.

Did they produce the egg between the two of them? No, they needed a female.

They can blow about it all they want but it still takes a male and female to make another little penguin.

Who would have suspected that animals in life-long captivity might develop psychological disorders?
