Two gay brown bears living in a sanctuary in Croatia enjoy having gay oral sex, according to researchers who have been watching them perform oral sex on each other for the last six years.
The report, published this month in the journal Zoo Biology, was conducted by a group of researchers led by Agnieszka Sergiel of the Polish Academy of Sciences Department of Wildlife Conservation. During 116 hours of observation, Sergiel writes that the two male brown bears that were observed pleasured each other orally on 28 different occasions.
io9 notes that this isnât the first time bears have been recorded performing fellatio, but other instances could be considered a âmarker of stress rather than pleasure.â This time, however, is âthe first observations of long-term, recurrent fellatio in captive brown bears kept in proper conditions.â
Each performance lasted roughly four minutes. And in case youâre wondering, there is a top (provider) and a bottom (receiver):
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
All cases appeared to be initiated by the provider, who approached the receiver while he was resting on his side or with part of his abdomen exposed. If the receiverâs genitals were not exposed, the provider would push his head into the pelvic region or use his paws to separate the hind legs. After accessing and initial licking of the penis, the provider would find a more comfortable posture, such as sitting or lyingâŚonce actual sucking started, neither bear changed position.
The journal suggests the brown bears developed a habit of performing fellatio because they were weaned too early from their mothers, wondering if itâs âevidence of long-term effects of suckling deprivation.â
Wrong. This is obviously happening because that bear on the bottom is sexy as hell. Heâs basically asking for it.

So, if the interpretation is that this behavior is from early weaning, then is that their conclusion about human BJs? Or just the gay ones?

@Teeth: Lol, I’m in no way substituting a teat for pen1s. They can believe all they want and it might be true for bears but not me.
Teeth
@Nowuvedoneit: Agreed. Only the saddest people in the world think that sex is only for procreation or due to mental pain, lol. You get so much from sex. Bonding, pleasure, stress release, a mid morning snack…

There is a book that documents massive numbers of examples of homosexuality in the animal kingdom and also all of the ways that researchers have tried to pretend that it wasn’t. One incident had two female chimps fingering each other and making orgasm noises for long periods of time that the researchers tried to claim was a greeting behavior (Even though they hadn’t been apart). They will ALWAYS try to pretend that it is something else.
The book is….

@Milk: Unless the bears have been drinking all night. Then that 4 minutes can take f o r e v e r.

Sometimes four minutes is all one need.

Maybe the brown bears have been taking lessons from the gay bears.

The Bonobo Monkeys have gay sex all day long with multiple partners. They know how to have a good time. Just check on youtube.

Hear that Xtians? Breast feeding prevents the gay. Get to work. LOL
Bullshit. I was breastfed and I could reach the opposite conclusion đ

@Milk: If I am in true, full form I can make it take less than two minutes. Most of my partners have to ask me to stop because they will not be able to hold off.
I wonder if these bears know that this behavior is unnatural and that the Great Bear God Yogi will smite them for it!

The report desperately tries to portray this behaviour as sick. It is completely biased. They say:
“Sexually stimulating behaviors that are not linked to reproduction are rare among non-human (especially non-primate) mammals.” -> Wrong, just read “Biological Exuberance” by Bruce Baghemil to get a list of animals with non-reproductive sexualities.
“In solitary species, such behaviors are more enigmatic, and possibly indicative of something abnormal.” -> Wrong. In some cases, homosexual relationships can be an advantage for solitary animals too, as they increase their chances of survival as seen in male lions not belonging to a pride.
“We suggest that the behavior began as a result of early deprivation of maternal suckling, and persisted through life, possibly because it remained satisfying for both individuals.” -> This is so absurd I shouldn’t even bother commenting it. As “Teeth” said: this would mean heterosexual Blowjobs are a result of early deprivation of maternal suckling too? LOL!

Hey, Rick Perry. You think the bears may be alcoholics?

My favorite was the panic that the anti-gay bigots had when this behavior in the animal kingdom first got reported out.
At first they spent years claiming being gay wasn’t natural because it never appeared in the animal kingdom. Then when reports came out that it WAS common in the animal kingdom they did a quick 180 and tried to say that being gay was bad BECAUSE animals did it. LOL
Oh you silly bigots.
