Homosexual storks brood on eggs (and raise young in European zoo)

I translated from Dutch, so the syntax is probably lousy and the grammar riddled with errors.

My my, kidnaping and spouse swapping.

Brooding homosexuals. Whoever would have thought?

There are all sorts of different behaviors in different species in the animal and plant world. News flash: they are not the human species. Human species reproduce by conjoining of one male and one female. It's biology and the natural law for humans. What other species might do are irrelevant.

When even the storks are gay, you know that it's a conspiracy.



I wonder if they use the same degree of care in delivering straight babies as they do in delivering gay babies?

One of the gaycouples still brood

It's an unhappy lifestyle.

[L98Fiero]

Hmm. It seems as the cast of Friends was all gay, then.

"nd look after their young."

Since they cannot create young, how are they theirs?

Aren't they looking after someone else's young?

It appears this article was trying to suggest since animals do it, it must be natural and acceptable behavior.

In response, I observe my dog eats poo. That does not make it a good idea for human behavior.

I have never heard of any other way vertebrates reproduce than the classic male-female. You probably refer to raising young! For storks that should be a male/female joined partnership.

My dog wallows in dead frogs. Maybe I should try that, too!........

Yeah I think that was the spokesperson's statement. But not mine, I think it was simply a weird phenomenon. It would be interesting to study the effects on the young.

Homosexuality in the animal kingdom is not unheard of, but is usually limited to caressing and imitation fertilization

Do not settle for cheap imitation fertilization...demand the real thing.

[formercalifornian]

Right. I had a cat who loved his companion fuzzy slipper, and some dogs will go for anything handy. But you know what the agenda is here.

[Jaded]

* According to the video from the site, the most likely explanation is that the couples already where acquinted with each other. After the females laid their eggs, the couples switched partners. ----------------------------------------

This is so completely ridiculous. Next thing you know they will be passing laws for same-sex-stork marriages.

The pro homo lobby strikes again....btw,is this by any chance the same zoo that had the homosexual penguins?
