Male Giraffes really use their head for testing weather a female is ovulating.
The male will hit the female's rear with his head to make her urinate.
He then licks up a sample of the urine and like a fine wine taster testing a vintage red, finds out if she is ready to be impregnated.

A Malaysian ant that makes its home inside a giant bamboo, has a clever way of coping with rising water tides.
If the bamboo, becomes flooded, the ant drinks as much water as it can, then runs outside to pee. It then returns to start the process all over again.

S is for Sex - especially for Guppy Fish. To signal their readiness for mating, the males form their bodies into what is known in technical terms as a sigmoid posture, Forming themselves into the letter S.
The Whipnose Anglerfish is quite unique. It is the only fish to have been filmed swimming upside down. It adopts the pose when trawling the depths of the ocean for prey.

The Stenocara beetle has a unique way of surviving the world's hottest desert, the Namib in southwest Africa: by drinking water with it's backside.
It's only source of water is the moisture in the morning fog. It collects this by pointing itself backwards into the morning breeze and collecting beads of moisture in its specially ridged backside.
The captured mist then dribbles along the ridges of its back into its mandibles.

Haha Mother Nature looks to have made a cock up as she normally ensures through evolution that a species adapts over time to suit it's environment-eg. flatfish. You would think that the lure on this Anglerfish would have migrated to the lower half of its body by now. Must get really dizzy spending most of its life upside down

The American and Canadian red squirrel gets through the winter by creating its own supply of maple syrup.
When the squirrel's stores of pine cones and nuts run out, it scores the bark of sugar maple trees with its sharp teeth, allowing the sap to drain.
When the sap has dried in the sun it leaves a sugary residue, which the squirrel licks to get a valuable boost of energy.

The Marine flatworm has a strange form of sex which scientists call "penis fencing."
Flatworms are hermaphrodites with two sharp-ended penises. The mating ritual consists of two of them vying to pierce each others skin with their penises.
The first to land a successful blow earns the right to be the male and transfer his sperm. The loser has to take on the onerous task of letting the eggs develop inside her.

Bottlenose Dolphins go through a highly energetic courtship ritual.
The male and female exchange vocal calls, then "kiss" by mouthing each other.
Next they move on to rub each others genitalia and body, stroke each others flippers and engage in a sprightly game of chase. Finally, they display their affection for each other by butting heads.

Pregnant kangaroos and wallabies can keep embryos in suspended animation.
If conditions aren't right and there is bad weather, sickness or a shortage of food or space in her pouch, the mother releases a substance from her mammary gland that puts the embryo's development on hold in a state called diapause.
She will only restart the growing process when conditions improve.
