Animal Sexual Behavior

Animal sexual behavior is the means by which animals interact with potential mates to reproduce. This behavior is essential for species survival as it allows for the possibility of genetic variation through sexual reproduction. Different types of animal sexual behavior range from courtship rituals, to copulation or mating strategies. Among mammals, sexual behavior can involve copulatory vocalizations, physical contact, scent marking, and the formation of social bonds. In addition, understanding animal sexual behavior can provide insight into human sexual behavior. As research advances in this field, animal sexual behavior is becoming a valuable tool to help further our knowledge of human behavior.
