Any scientific reason why male gliders have two reproduction organs? I can't say penis..can I?
can I say Peni$ instead?
Still. Why two? What was God thinking?

The reason is the female has two as well...

The female has what?!
No...really?
But wait. the female has one same area for both modes of elimination. You mean the female has two birthing canals and reproductive systems?
Now that sounds more complicated than my first statement.

The glider has only ONE penis, it is just bifrucated. This is because the female's reproductive organs are ALSO bifricated. This increases the chances of successful reproduction in the glider.

There is a thread here showing the female's reproductive system ..... let me see if I can find it.

lol. this is always an interesting fact to share with people who are like "a sugar what?" the faces are priceless. lol. i brought this up with my uncle when he was asking about why we had to get haji neutered. he had to leave the room. i think i embarrased him a bit too much. lol.

I believe this is the link that Jackie_Chans_Mom was thinking of.

In this thread, Peggy shows a picture of a female's reproductive system.

Sweet! Thank you for sharing that! I have always wondered!!

basically, not 2 penises... but what might be in one tube of skin is not... they are out, separate... and LONG. so they can so whichever way into the females 2 ways (One "door" 2 "hallways."

Just ONE of the reasons they can be pregnant with 2 different PREGNANCIES at the same time. Marsupials have amazing insides, don't they? And people wonder why we have to take them to special vets!
