Gay Animals
Synopsis
Beautiful location filming, new scientific discovery and a wicked sense of humour are the central ingredients of this new and surprising journey of discovery. It seems that hundreds of animals have been keeping a surprising secret for centuries – they’re gay.
The idea of Gay Animals does sound ludicrous at first, but scientists have built up a huge body of evidence to support the existence of homosexuality in the animal kingdom – from the Bonobos of Zaire, to the Bottlenose Dolphin; from the lovable Penguin to Biddie and Eva, gorilla lesbian lovers. So why haven’t we heard more about gay animals before? Perhaps if we had, the struggle for acceptance by the human gay community might not have been such a long and arduous one. And if we have missed so much in nature, if so many behaviours have been kept from us until now, what else are we ignorant of?
