An exhibition on homosexuality among animals at the Oslo Natural History Museum has apparently been well received so far, despite initial indications of strong opposition.
“Homosexuality is a common and widespread phenomenon in the animal world,” says an exhibition statement. “Not only short-lived sexual relationships, but even long-lasting partnerships; partnerships that may last a lifetime.” Homosexuality has been observed among 1,500 species, and that in 500 of those it is well documented.
