Giving stones from penguins: A scandalous tradition with fights, lust and theft! Giving stones among penguins is perhaps the most romantic ritual that can be found among animals. Just imagine: a guy in love spends hours looking for the most beautiful, roundest and neatest stone, and then gives it to his beloved. And this stone becomes the first brick of their common house, in which they will have children. It's beautiful, isn't it? What a pity that this beauty is spoiled by those who like to deceive the system. Comfortable smooth pebbles are quite rare even on the rocky Antarctic islands, and getting just one can be a challenge. Therefore, if “that same” stone is noticed by two males at once, a bloody fight cannot be avoided. And it’s not at all a fact that the winner will be able to bring the pebble to the female, because he could be robbed along the way. Because a beautiful lady, in general, doesn’t care where you got this pebble and how much effort you spent on it. Moreover, one stone will most likely not be enough for you. Do you want to increase your chances of starting a family? Bring several at once. Better yet, distribute them to different females, diversify your likings. At least one out of ten will definitely like you. All that remains is to get these ten stones. By any means, including banal theft from females, you are not interested. The ladies are good too. They always and without problems accept signs of sympathy, even if they are presented by a small-looking male whom you don’t even want to look at. Moreover, even the choice of a partner does not prevent some ladies from portraying an innocent coquette in front of still free males in exchange for stones. But these scammers immediately lose interest in the poor guys as soon as they get what they want. After all, making a promise does not mean getting married. But especially fallen ladies sink even lower - right down to corrupt love. They receive stones from males who are unlucky enough to find a mate at the end of the mating season, or from particularly cheeky “family” men while their wives go fishing. But in fairness, it should be admitted that most penguins remain faithful to their soulmate during the mating season. And they even maintain their connection for many years. What conclusion can be drawn from this story? That all men are sycophants and thieves, and women are swindlers and shifters. Well, or that the behavior of animals should not be measured by the standards of human morality. Each species survives in its own conditions and makes its own sacrifices. In the end, they deceive, fight and go to war not for status or ephemeral wealth, but because this is the only way to leave offspring in their harsh world.
