Ok so I won't. But female penguins will....
Say you're a penguin, and you're trying to make your nest. You're in a committed relationship with a sexy boy penguin, but, you look over and see something that could change that.
A stone.
Not just any stone. A perfect stone that will fit beautifully into your nest.
You want it.
But unlike other animals you won't go and rip his head off for it, oh no. You exchange it for sexual favours. Penguin Prostitution.
According to Dr Fiona Hunter (a zoologist): “It tends to be females targeting single males, otherwise the partner female would beat the intruder up.
To make matters worse, sometime the poor guy with the stone doesn't even get any. She'll get him all excited and the RUN AWAY WITH THE STONE. (I like to picture her giggling with glee whilst doing so...)
Does anyone else find this just... freakin' hilarious!?
