Animals Engaging in Anal Sex

[Fotheringay-Phipps]

Are there any animals which have been observed engaging in penetrative anal sex?

[I’m aware that there are many animals which engage in homosexual-type behaviours. I’m asking about anal sex specifically, whether with same or opposite sex. And of course, this applies to animals which have distinct anuses, versus cloacas or other arrangements.]

Bison, giraffes, and polecats for a start.

Interesting, in reference to Amazonian dolphins:

In captivity, they have been observed to sometimes perform homosexual and heterosexual penetration of the blowhole, a hole homologous with the nostril of other mammals, making this the only known example of nasal sex in the animal kingdom.

Are humans animals?

I haven’t made a detailed study of animal sodomy, but I do know that the hedgehog can never be buggered at all.

Oh, come on. SOMEONE had to do it, might as well be me.

These animals engage in ass sex all the time.
