‘Lesbian’ seagulls and ‘gay’ rams: the endless sexual diversity of nature

Same-sex sexual behaviours have been reported in a wide variety of
species, and a new study suggests that, although animal scientists
widely observe it, they seldom publish about same-sex sexual
behaviour in primates and other mammals. To find out why and to
hear about some of the examples of sexual diversity from the animal
kingdom, Ian Sample hears from Josh Davis, a science writer at the
Natural History Museum in London and author of the book A Little
Gay Natural History. Help support our independent journalism at
