Professor Nonce's School for Nincompoops

Post by gravious » Thu Jul 26, 2007 2:13 pm

I see that there is an astounding level of ignorance regarding common matters of ornitholgy, zoology, biology and indeed a great range of other matters amongst the populace of this institution.

Therefore, I am willing to put forth a moritorium on sound thrashings and the like, and present to you a forum for discussion of such basic information that may enable said denizens to avoid looking utterly imbecilic in polite company.

Submit your pitiful questions FORTHWITH!

Finally, an interesting question Mr Noise!

No, birds do not have penises in the conventional sense. Both the male and females have reproductive orifices, which are aligned during the (usually very rapid) mating ritual for exchange of reproductive materials, i.e. avian spermatoza.

I see I have an attentive pupil!

Now work on your attitude boy, or you will serve out the term in the east-wing copying out bible passages without a sharpened quill.

Birds mate by joining cloaca (which is basically an all purpose hole for pooing, laying eggs etc...). The male deposits a...erm....plug (sorry, sounds pretty grim) of sperm in the female when their 'holes' meet. And thats how eggs are made.

Quite young sir, quite. But you will receive only the the stern admiration of your superior, a gift much greater than any mere tokenism I assure you.

What happens if the male leaves this plug in her hole and soon after the female needs to empty a load. Surely the plug would get emptied along with the turdus. This 3 in one hole sounds a good idea but i can forsee problems occurring.
