Woulda been hard for Noah to inspect the genitals, two by two, of thousands of species with ambiguous/metamorphic genitalia or the ones that reproduce through parthenogenesis - but apparently, Noah thought each and every one of them, no matter how they looked or loved, was worth saving from the flood (although, realistically most of those animals are aquatic or amphibious, alot of plot issues in that story)🌈
...damn if I didn't see a poor, lone she-duck get ran through by a mob of mallards one time - shit is not for the weak. I was just sitting at a park when I heard it and saw it and then realized what was happening...and I'm looking around, like wondering if I should get some people, or call for help, or break it up, or just do something for the poor girl.
...but then I remembered where I was and reminded myself "oh, nature" and how fucking grim the circle of life can be, from our human perspectives, anyways (not trying to place value judgements on any waterfowl, here) Nature really is weirder and wilder than sci-fi - it's so mind-blowing, incomprehensible and visceral and so...everywhere
