Male kangaroos has 3 penises

They don’t. But I was reading Adam Kay’s “Kay’s Anatomy” with my 8 year old son and we got onto reproduction and female kangaroos have 3 vaginas. My son asked, “so do male kangaroos have 3 penises?”. They don’t. They have one what splits - we researched it.

I’m just wondering what kangaroos would identify as if they have 3 vaginas and 2 penises?

I thought that it was frozen in liquid nitrogen.

Not when wanted for a mare in season 30 miles down the road...

IIRC (and I'm not going to google) pigs produce vast quantities of semen, but it contains a lot of not very good sperm.

And someone I know used to work on a stud farm. She once had to take a vial of ejaculate from a stallion to a different stud, and to keep it warm she stuffed it down her cleavage.

Ducks have a spiral penis. Like one of those turkey twizzlers that Jamie Oliver hates so much. Sometimes the drakes get too wound up and they get stuck out, it's not a great situation.

As do humans,if they are feeding a newborn and a toddler for example.

Really?

How do boobs know who's suckling?

What if you swap over?

@unclebuck I used to love Amateur Transplants and had a couple of their CDs. I listened to one about 3 years ago. They are now in a landfill somewhere.

Where I work we have so many pigeons, despite the pigeon spikes. Against our work room window we see the pigeons in all their glory.

I agree. I’m a teacher and I actually think the book is patronising (putting aside my biases about him aside). My son (ASD) found it hilarious though so I pursued with it. I’ve also bought Dr Ranj’s book and having a skim, I think that’s a better book. It took to the end of the book to get to the fascinating fact about kangaroos!

Genitals are so ugly.

maybe we should be like birds and rub glands?

defo no confusion of gender then.

Ha!

I saw birds mating when I was a child, (on a tree branch right outside the window of my room), and noticed the absence of any penis.

It made me think then of what might happen if humans used, say, wind pollination for pregnancies. Flashers would be extremely dangerous (hiding behind the corner of a building, opening the raincoat and bam!) But I thought it was preferably to having bees crawling all over your genital area.

Another fun fact - female ferrets can actually die from lack of sex. Their hormonal levels increase and increase until they get a male and without sex they will die. Pet ferrets have to be neutered to stay alive.

Or they can have a Jill jab to bring them out of season.
Male ferrets also come into season, turn yellow, and need to be kept separated.

That is a hilarious theory.

Every other female animal gets to look at beautiful tails and feathers and displays and bowers. We get to marvel at cock.

If you find this sort of nonsense funny, watch Green Porno - the Isabella Rosellini shorts:

Utterly hilarious and brilliant. Like this one about a ducks many chambered vagina.
What a woman she is 😂

Fun fact to tell your kids: A female kangeroo being chased by a predator will strategically take her Joey out of her pouch and throw it to the predator to save herself. Teaching kids about nature is such a bonding experience 😂

Kangaroos can also carry a blastocyst in a state of embryonic diapause (arrested development) for many months. So if they need to discard one baby then they have another ready to go without needing to mate first.

unclebuck · 10/04/2023 18:00

@ArcticSkewer exactly! The more we learn about human sexuality the more obvious it becomes that the female is the 'chooser' in our species.

I love biology.

My friend read an article once that female breasts only evolved to be enlarged to attract the the strongest primate.

I have AA breasts. I would have have died out.

I told my Yr 13a this and they tried to research whether a female kangaroo can be both pregnant and be impregnated.

Another great fact: A female hyena has a pseudo penis which enables her to express high levels of testosterone. The problem is that she has to give birth through it which is a high price to pay, imo. Poor bitches 😂

Hyenas rule by a matriarchy - I wonder if it because they’re genitalia is hard for reproduction.

More fun facts! Humans are one of the few animals without a penis bone! It is hypothesised that this was a 'sexy sons' evolutionary step so like a peacocks tail or the antlers of the Irish Elk - the human males absurdly poorly developed penis the ultimate show of fitness. "I can maintain an erection with this terrible penis so I must be super fit" type thing. Other theories focus on possible blunt force trauma injuries causing the loss of the bone but let's not dwell eh?!

That is a hilarious theory.
