In this collection of classic MinuteEarth videos, we take a look at how deep the divide between males and females actually goes.
We originally created the videos in the “MinuteEarth Explains” series for another project. But we know that lots of people right now are looking for really good online educational content - and something to take their mind off current events - so we decided to release them here as well. We’d love to know what you think, so leave us a comment below!

Well... there is also the angler fish. The male fuses with the female and kinda just becomes a mindless breeding parasite... er... symbiote (I'm not entirely sure which is more applicable). He takes nutrients from the female anglerfish while he provides sperm when he's ready to spawn. This relationship has two side affects: 1.) because they are now inseparable, it gets rid of the need to find any other partner in the terrible blackness that is the angler fish's habitat, and 2.) Because the male is now essentially just an appendage for the female... many of his internal organs and other useless bits like his eyes atrophy and wither away... talk about horrifying!
O_O
Net_Spider wait what about praying mantis and spider?? It doesn't count as cheating if your partner is dead right??.
The freaky reason they aren't monogamous is that females can have more than one male attached to her. I think one fish was found with five males.

Imagine the person who had to draw all this...
Oof yeah I didn't think about that till now
I took a class from a prof that researched the genes of these hyenas, and she said that it's a byproduct of the excess testosterone. As females have to be more aggressive, their hormones have been optimized for brute strength, which results in higher than average testosterone. Some phenotypes are not evolved for a specific purpose, but rather just an unfortunate byproduct of other genetics.
Thats not true

So should I be mad if my bf cheats on me or is it just his evolutionary instinct so he couldn't fully control it?
I Think The Better Question Is: Should You Be Starting Your Own Harem,Because Of Evolutionary Instinct?>;3
According to this, it’s also his instincts to control you and keep you from mating with other males ever. Point is, biological directive or not, we got priorities beyond that. If it hurts, be mad.
However, we humans have consciousness, so we have the option to overcome our instincts in order to be fair and loyal to our partners. This is what separates right and wrong in this situation, I suppose.
Yes you should be mad because humans are able to control instincts.
Yes you should be mad. Your ex man is an adult, who choose to be unfaithful
Hyena reproduction is messed up.
Yeah, It's awkward
No wonder they have very irritating laughter

I just learnt so freaking much in one video that I will be processing this for a while.
So, most animals are not monogamous, some male traits get passed from female genes, male hyenas have a hard life and females are fixed to their place too, and they give birth in the worst way possible! And so much more!

Sadly, this is 100% correct.
Mother Nature could not give less of a shit about the happiness of its own children, all it cares about is whether they're "successful" and if they "have grandkids".
I don't think so......no offense, but aren't humans intellectually superior due to the extra attention given by both parents?? Isn't that how we evolved?
you need a hug bro?
I don't need a hug.
One thing you missed was that angler fish fuse together, the male latches onto the females side, and she basically absorbs him, kinda like the flat worms.
They can have more than one male
Male bird : SO WHY DID U CHEATED ON ME BABE ....😢

Hyenas are just messed up from start to finish. Between their awkward rear ends their hierarchy and the horrible birthing process wow. I think I'd rather be a vulture. At least they are more respected in the group of scavengers. 😁
Hyenas aren't scavengers. Hyenas hunt more than lions. Lions are more of scavengers than hyenas.
@@marl5720 guess we're both right
Spotted hyenas may kill as many as 95% of the animals they eat,[5] while striped hyenas are largely scavengers.[6] Generally, hyenas are known to drive off larger predators, like lions, from their kills, despite having a reputation in popular culture for being cowardly.[6] Hyenas are primarily nocturnal animals, but sometimes venture from their lairs in the early-morning hours. With the exception of the highly social spotted hyena, hyenas are generally not gregarious animals, though they may live in family groups and congregate at kills.[7
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyena
@@37rmstrong I never knew some of that stuff. But according to the video, they are spotted hyenas.
Humans could be like that before. Females live longer than males. Lol
Neil Porter even vultures are kinda bad try a chimp or bonobo our closest animals
Well, that explains why hyenas are always angry and frustrated af.
The (male) duck in the beginning of the first video: ‘ Hey honey, I will go cheat and reproduce. ‘
The female: ‘ Ok. ‘
2:53 - There's a creature (a different worm iirc) where upon mating, the male sort of splays open and the female lays inside him and he wraps up and they fuse together (it's like she's wearing him as a winter-coat). I can't for the life of me remember what it was called or find the screenshot of TH-cam video where I saw it last. 🤔

Meanwhile, in the future :
Alien : do homo sapiens is monogamus or not?
Other alien : Uh.....it' s hard to explain
It's both amazing and disturbing that we know all this
"We don't have a convincing explanation for why nature has given female hyenas large genitals"
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't we have an answer to this: Testosterone
Testosterone promotes genital growth. Males are more aggressive in most species, and this is largely because they produce more testosterone, which is a hormone most intertwined with the expression of aggressive traits (I can share more about testosterone's role in modulating aggression if needed).
Female hyenas produce more testosterone than males; not only does this make sense given their dominance structure, but it also explains female's larger genitals.
Fun fact about hyenas: Pups taken to another country and raised without mothers still end up forming a female dominant hierarchy, but it takes a while for this system to emerge. This is because it emerges from both physiological and psychological phenomena - higher testosterone levels, as well as watching mom terrorize the males, which these pups didn't get to do.
But I think The question is more a evoltutinary one. What happened to female hyenas to have more testosterone and bigger genitalia, when all other mammals species did the opposity?
@@Carla10987654321 Must be some environmental factor. Hyenas are more scavengers than hunters. Females have a bigger role in feeding young than males. Scavenging also means less quality food than hunting themselves. If pups were depended on their weaker mothers to fight for their food with males, it would be bad for their offspring in general. So maybe females had to become bigger and stronger to ensure food for pups. There are not many mammals that live in pack and are scavengers mostly. Cant think of another similar species. There is a ranking order when it comes to eating in all animal packs: first eat the biggest and strongest animals. So a lion pack starts eating from a whole animal and weakest pack members get leftovers. But hyenas start eating from leftovers as scavengers, and the weakest hyenas get leftovers of leftovers... -_-
Interesting. But doesn’t increased testosterone levels in females of most mammal species cause changes to egg production and ovulation? Does it not matter when it comes to hyenas or does testosterone play a different role?
@@Tina99999 i think hyenas being mostly scavengers instead of hunters is a myth, isn't it?
@@cass6082 if they can still have plenty of pups despite having high testosterone levels, im pretty sure it doesn’t affect them. However I wonder why mammals like humans don’t follow this path? Wouldn’t it be more beneficial if both members of the species were able to defend themselves? Not saying women can’t fight, they just have a harder time doing so
My favorite animal love story is sea otter that bangs female even after it drowns it for like a week and stops only when it decays way too much.
Ah, necrophilia, how romantic!
NetAndyCz i like how pink dolphin bite off death fish head and use the decapitated corpse as flesh light

Gaming legends _-_ the ratio of duck penis is 1:1 or 1:1.5 so imagine if human have this.
Blue bird gave her everything the moon the stars and the planets, but all she wanted was space 0:55
It's interesting how most cultures define monogamy as the standard mate choosing procedure, but female instinct works by hypergamy and male instinct works by polygamy(explained pretty well why in the second section of the video).
Well, we have long gestation period compared to other mammals, we are the animal with higher birth mortality because of our larger skull. Promiscuous behaviors on women are more problematic or harmful for human women.
However we can build deep emotional/psychological bonds with some end up together for life. We are more complex than animals, humans relationships can vary. For what i saw on an experiment, men tend to be more visual & women more picky.
People need to know: How do you place the screen PERFECTLY?
Green screens.
2:50 In the case of humans, it should be noted that part of these differences are functionally selected. Namely, hips. I imagine that other than facial hair, many of these differences are pretty easily explained by similar manner of functionalism

Lesson of the day:

DiamondTurtle femanists are trying to change our hierarchy to a hyena hierarchy
But, for some reason, the West is mimicing them.
