The Argentine Lake Duck
Several years ago I was playing around on the internet with my art teacher, only to find out about the Argentine Lake Duck. This duck has a 17 inch penis with a tuft of feather growing out of the end. Good Lord.
Is this nature’s french tickler? Probably not. I decided to google it today to see what’s up and this is what I found on scienceblogs.com
” The male may use the brush-like tip of its penis to scrub the sperm of previous mates from the female’s oviduct.”
”Dr McCracken and colleagues speculate that the giant penis may be an example of ‘runaway’ sexual selection, where female preference drives male anatomy to ever-greater extremes, as in the peacock’s tail.”
