Homosexual behavior widespread in animals according to study from UK Telegraph reports that it isn't just gay penguins - but in fact, there are numerous instances of homosexual activity in the animal kingdom.
Dr Bailey said: "It's clear same-sex sexual behaviour extends far beyond the well-known examples that dominate both the scientific and popular literature – for example, bonobos, dolphins, penguins and fruit flies.
"Same-sex behaviours – courtship, mounting or parenting – are traits that may have been shaped by natural selection, a basic mechanism of evolution that occurs over successive generations," he said.
"But our review of studies also suggests that these same-sex behaviours might act as selective forces in and of themselves."
