Discover homosexual behavior, gender changes, and more in over 1,500 species: nature is queer. Animal behavior that makes you look at things differently Intersex kangaroos, penguin trios, same-sex parenting, and mating lionesses: nature is full of surprises. In this interactive theater lecture, emeritus ARTIS biologist Charlotte Vermeulen takes you through the colorful world of sexual diversity in the animal kingdom. She conducted research into sexually diverse behavior in animals for about 30 years as resident biologist at ARTIS. What you discover about 1,500 species Homosexual behavior has already been observed in more than 1,500 species of birds and mammals. Some fish change from male to female and back. Different sexual preferences, the absence of sex, and sex changes: it all occurs in nature. Charlotte Vermeulen shows how our own expectations do not always correspond with what really happens in the animal kingdom.
