Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Animal sexual behaviour, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Adrian J.

- That article doesn't have scientific evidence because it's not a scientific article – it's a news article. You're welcome to replace it with a better source. A moment with Google scholar finds peer-reviewed review articles like this and this that support the Wikipedia article's existing text. Note that citations are not absolutely required in an article's lead if the material is cited in the article's body (WP:LEADCITE).
- The general public's understanding of animal sexual behavior lags well behind what we now know, and it's possible you've been told things by people you trust that simply aren't true. It's really a fascinating field... I'd encourage you to read about it for yourself. Adrian J. Hunter(talk•contribs) 13:59, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
