German zoo forcing gay vultures to sleep with lady vultures

Guido was snatched from his partner and shipped 400 miles east to a zoo in the Czech Republic, where a new bride awaited him. In his place is a Czech temptress whom zookeepers hope can seduce Detlef.

"Detlef is reorienting himself now," [Zoo curator Dirk Wewers] told the Telegraph. But he acknowledged that so far, Detlef and the Czech bird haven't touched one another.

Now gay-rights activists are holding demonstrations outside of the zoo. "This is like in the dark Middle Ages," one protestor told a German newspaper, "forcibly making a creature sexually reorient itself by tearing its partner from its side." Also, the Crusades. The Crusades happened during the Middle Ages too.

Animal behavior may be homosexual, but animals are cannot be gay. Or straight.

Those are human cultural categories.

Also humans are animals, despite what some may think.
