Museum Hosts Animal Sex Exhibit For Valentine's Day

Can you think of a better way to spend Valentine's Day than looking at a bunch of animals in flagrante delicto with the special person in your life? The Natural History Museum in London is hoping you can't. The museum is hosting an exhibit entitled, "Sexual Nature" which "explores the diverse ways in which animals have evolved to procreate, such as a snail's love darts, the detachable penis of the paper nautilus, or the outsized testes of the promiscuous chimp." Curator Tate Greenhalgh says, "This exhibition is about the relationship between sex and evolution and the bizarre, surprising adaptations that animals have evolved to procreate as much as possible. We ask people to be open-minded when looking at potentially surprising, maybe shocking things that animals do that would be outlawed in human society."
