Chapter 554 (1/2)

”Shit, just now I saw that they were so close that I wanted to have a sweet and romantic love. You told me they were both male?”

”Finished, the beautiful image of swan in my heart collapsed!”

Fang Ye coughed twice: ”ah, normal, homosexual behavior is not unique to us.

Homosexual behavior is very common in birds and mammals. Among birds, storks and geese have the highest incidence of homosexual behavior, such as swans. One fifth of their males will have sex with you and me.

First of all, they like to breed in groups. The nests of different Swan families are not far away from the breeding ground.

The fluff hasn't faded yet. The little swans meet the children of their neighbors and compete for the position of little overlord. They don't agree to touch it.

In battle, they will form alliances with each other. This kind of comradeship in arms fighting side by side may develop into a lifelong love when they grow up.

This kind of love doesn't have real mating behavior, which is what we call ”Platonic love”. If someone steps on the other side's back and plans to do something, he will encounter fierce resistance and a relationship may break up.

Maybe the old man who has been together for several years will have a higher degree of patience, but it is only limited to stepping on his back. ”

”Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

”Other people's birds have friends. You don't even have friends (FOG)...”

”Sure enough, the opposite sex is only for reproduction, and the same sex is true love!”

”I once raised pigeons. Two male pigeons really build nests like husband and wife. They are no different from other pigeon families except that they can't lay eggs.”

Fang ye said: ”two male swans can actually reproduce! They are more competitive together and occupy a larger territory. Female swans will be attracted, and the male swans mate with the female to lay eggs.

When the eggs are laid, the female swans will be driven away, and the two male swans will raise their offspring. Sometimes, they even save the step of luring the female swans, and directly pick the nests of other Swan couples to drive them away and occupy the nests and eggs together. ”

”Emmm, scum man cheating on marriage?”

”It's too bad to rob other people's children.”

”Shit, isn't it like a cuckoo!”

”After knowing this, I suddenly don't like swans so much...”

No matter the beautiful image of the swan at first sight or the various literary works about the swan, everyone's impression of the swan is very good, beautiful and loyal.

It's hard to accept for a while.

Some people also said calmly: ”I've seen it for a long time! What symbols of love are installed by us humans. People's swans are like that, and mandarin ducks, scum men who run away after mating.”

Fang Ye explained: ”there is nothing good or bad. Animals act according to their own instincts. Only we have morality. We can't evaluate animals according to people's moral standards.

People think that swans are monogamous and never separate. Even if one party dies, the other will not live alone. They are regarded as a symbol of love.

In fact, swans will divorce, but only 5% - 10%, which is really loyal and worthy of our admiration compared with the average divorce rate of 40% of human beings.

Long term and stable partnership is determined by their own conditions. Some small birds don't live long. If they don't live for the second year, what's the significance of loyalty?

Only large and long-lived birds can form the ideal relationship that we humans think is loyal and romantic.

Wild swans generally live for 20-30 years and have a long life span, which means a long breeding period. It takes six months for baby swans to learn to fly. Adult birds also fall during the breeding period when they change their hair in summer, so the male and female hair changes are staggered. In order to ensure that one can only fly and fight when taking care of their baby, a long-term and stable spouse is very important for them. ”

”Up!”

Nonsense, after listening to these, look at the pair of swans swimming leisurely in the lake, and give birth to some different feelings.

I liked watching swans when I was a child. I didn't expect that I didn't know them at all.

But now look at them, still feel very beautiful.
