Birds & Bees : Are some gay ? "WTF"

Same-sex hehaviors have scientists asking : Is homosexuality a biological given or a lifestyle choice? Some scientists are looking to the aminal kingdom for clues.
One recent study shows that same- sex behaviors in the wild are actually more common than expected. Young bottlenose dolphins , for example , engage in same- sex sexual behavior as part of social bonding---possibly to practice for adult heterosexual sex. Female albatrosses can bond to raise their young. Male fruit flies may court each other because of a genetic variation that allows them to smell both sexes. And some bonobo apes engage in same-sex as a way to ease social tenison.
Biologist Marlene Zuk of the University of California-Riverside says we shouldn't focus on whether the animals proclivities do or don't justify humans. "There's this huge diversity of behavior that doesn't fit into our preconceived categories ,:" she says. "If we keep an open mind , what are we going to find that we don't expect?" Next, she'd like to learn how species " gene pools are affected by same sex relationships.
My spin on this : To all the "Scientists" everywhere, if we don't get this Global Warming in check, we won't have a world to live on , much less study the sexual habits of anything. Now I ask you: What matters most, saving our "Planet" or studying the sexual behavior of the birds and bees? Stay tuned: More to come.
