The Giraffe mating ritual
I read this on the bus this morning, in a book called 'The best American Science writing 2009'
When a male giraffe is interested in a female, he apparently follows her about and nuzzles her, er, nether regions.
Noticing his interest, the female giraffe urinates.
Male giraffe catches the urine on his lips/mouth etc, and does some sort of sniffing ritual as he has a sensory organ (Jacobsen's organ) that can detect from the lady's urine if she is fertile or not.
Sure beats dinner and flowers.

Many species do similar.
In fact I'm sure a google image search would prove... entertaining, if you're into that sort of thing

It'd last for an entire year here, too... 'cause no one would eat it.
... too chewy.
(or so I've heard :p)

If I admitted to eating Giraffe cock I bet Mattus would rush back here.
