Our fellow animal lovers at the BBC Natural History Unit recently sent us some great information on the similarities of animal mating rituals with that of us humans. What is truly important to remember as you read through these amazing descriptions, is that as much as we'd like to think that we are higher life forms, we are still very much connected to our underdeveloped brethren by our base needs to survive, procreate, eat, drink, and sleep. Enjoy these amazing creatures in their very human-like attempts to... get it on!
The Hippy Dolphin Commune Lives On

Dusky Dolphins are current examples of the 70's hippy movement all over again. They much prefer to Make Love, Not War. These mammals live in rather promiscuous societies, or communes if you will, engaging in frequent group sex to build upon their societies closeness as a whole. The prelude to these group acts includes chases, leaps from the water, and swimming belly to belly (sounds a little like Woodstock). If a ripple in the wave is a rocking, then don't come a knocking!

Just as a true romantic couple prefers to go everywhere holding the hand of their chosen soul mate, male and female elephants gently caress and entwine their trunks as a sign of affection and dare we say love for each other. Okay this is the cue when you are all supposed to say, "Awww."
