Amazed animals make love for 14 hours, 'finished' then rolled out... dead

Although the kangaroo has a very cute face, it is extremely aggressive in mating. When the matter is over, the male may even lose his life.

Although the kangaroo has a very cute face, it is extremely aggressive in mating. When the matter is over, the male may even lose his life.

The scientific name of the kangaroo is Dasyurus. This animal is like a 'hybrid' of a cat and a mouse with brown or black fur with white spots, a pink nose and strong teeth.

The kangaroo is an animal native to Australia and Papua New Guinea. Their food is mainly insects and other small animals, fruits and nuts… They are a carnivorous marsupial. Therefore, it is not as accessible as many other small mammals because its teeth are very sharp and ready to attack anyone who comes near.

This animal has quite aggressive behavior in mating.

The kangaroo is a nocturnal animal. They like to hide in "dens" which are self-dug burrows, in trees or termite mounds. This animal has quite aggressive behavior in mating. Each time they mate on average lasts a few hours but can also last up to a day. That's because males don't release many sperm at a time, so they have to ejaculate multiple times to make sure the sperm fuses with the egg.

After choosing a mate, kangaroos will mate about five times. But if the male kangaroo fails to please the female during mating, the ready female can look for a better mate.

Kangaroos like to hide in "dens" that are self-dug burrows, in trees or termite mounds.

So, under the stimulation of the female kangaroo, the male kangaroo will prolong the mating time, so that it can pass on its wonderful genes. However, male kangaroos are also often exhausted to death in the frenzied pursuit to mate as many times as possible.

During the entire mating season, male kangaroos consume a lot of Testosterone (the sex hormone) and have to fight other males, spending very little time eating and sleeping.

Male animals produce much more sperm than female eggs.

So why is mating in the wild "in the hands" of the female? Natural selection for copulation has only one purpose, and that is to produce a new generation.

Male animals produce much more sperm than female eggs. Furthermore, during reproduction, males are solely responsible for mating, which has nothing to do with feeding their offspring. Females are different, in addition to coordinating mating, they are also responsible for pregnancy and childbirth, as well as rearing cubs. Therefore, the males will not let go of any females they may mate with.
