Writer's Block: Nature Gone Wild

Nov 13, 2008 08:28

Holy crap, I always knew hyenas were a f-ed up creation but sheesh. I guess there is no penis envy in that species.

Weird stuff.... uhh, old firehouses had circular stares so the horses that pulled the firewagon couldn't come upstairs :-)

And turtles can breathe through their butts. Or so I've been told.

writer's block, weird facts, nature, animals

RE: Hyena penis.

My understanding is that it's actually a massive clitoris. Hyena females apparently have a lot of testosterone, and hyena packs are matriarchal. It's not a functioning penis - they can't inseminate anything, etc. - but it certainly makes you do a double-take!
