| Newly Discovered Worm Fences With Penis
http://www.sciencedaily.com/upi/inde...a-creature.xml
This was linked on FARK, so I assume a lot of you have already seen it, but still, this was too good to resist.

| From the article:
"The creatures have both male and female parts and engaged in a sexual practice somewhat like penis fencing."
They say it like it's an actual event. Is it organized by the FIEP?

| It's not just Worms that fence with their penises - bonobo chimps do as well. So it's not exactly unkown behaviour. | |
