   wastefulness in NatureBioD is of course right to point out that there is nothing at all remarkable about a "frustrated, sexually inexperienced" (= horny and, despite all efforts, still very virginal) young male going nuts.
   Still, it is interesting to observe that in many mammal species, especially those in which the difference in size between the sexes is pronounced, as in fur seals and some other pinnipeds, there are lots of males who go through life without ever having sex, quite contrary to their own hopes and wishes.
   This is yet another example of wastefulness in Nature, a source of great embarrassment to that hypothetical Intelligent Designer: all these young stud-wannabes, fully loaded and ready to pop off, in vain.
   As for inter-species relationships, we might recall that in John Waters's raunchorama classic "Pink Flamingoes," Divine's son seems to enjoy the coupling experience when a chicken is placed right in the middle of things.  And in Woody Allen's "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex *But Were Afraid to Ask," in the story answering the question, "What is bestiality?," a psychiatrist, played by Gene Wilder, has a career-ending affair with a pretty ewe.
   
   Chickens deserve our true friendship! So do fish! So do other sentient beings! Let us learn to be kind.
