Female Facts
~In times of stress such as extreme hot spells, the female mushroom coral switches its sex so that most of the population becomes male. The advantage of doing so is that male corals can more readily cope with stress when resources are limited.
~Singing to females makes male birds’ brains happy.
~ Thanks to evolution, Whiptail Lizard males are nonexistent, but the whiptail lizard ladies have found a way around in vitro. A female will get a surge of testosterone, mimicking male behavior enough to trigger reproduction in another female, who can lay eggs and fertilize herself. How’s that for girl power?
