Monkey Pornography

02.09.2005

Stumbled across this fantastic weblog: Philosophy of Biology. The fact that I am not very familiar with biology (as a body of knowledge) makes this find all the better. Anyhow, the reader is undoubtably curious as to why this post is titled "monkey pornography"... well, read on:

Male monkeys will trade their juice for photos of female monkeys' hindquarters, according to a new study forthcoming in Current Biology. I'm not sure how relevant this finding is to the philosophy of biology, but at least our site traffic should get a boost from having the word 'pornography' in a post title. [link]

Touche, Michael Sprague, touche...
