Writer's Block: Nature Gone Wild

I don't have any weird facts, I just thought I would point out that FEMALE HYENAS DON'T HAVE PENISES.  Their genetalia has developed into a penis-like structure but it is just an elongated clitoris, which, last time I checked, is part of the female anatomy.  It's actually a really serious issue because it means their first litter has almost no chance because it is so difficult for female hyenas to give birth for the first time.

Bio 160 for the win!
