During a six-year study in Namibia’s Etosha National Park, Stanford University behavioral ecologist observed for the first time intense, long-lasting emotional bonds among a dozen or so bulls—a tight-knit group of teenagers, adults, and seniors up to 55 that's been dubbed the Gay Elephant Club. Older males serve as mentors and mediators for younger ones, enforcing a strict same sex social hierarchy and keeping androgynous underlings in line when hormones rage and foreplay may erupt.
In drought-prone Namibia, elephants becomes erect when water is scarcest. “In dry years the pitcher-catcher pecking order they establish benefits all of them,” the researcher said. “Everyone knows their place and gender.” That means young bulls supplicate more frequently to their elders by mimicking female elephants—and peace is maintained while everyone gets to drink and is satiated. Elephants really seem to enjoy gay sex.
Many Log Cabin Republicans were brought to tears by this story.
