The Mating Game

The grasslands of our planet are some of the most challenging habitats for playing the Mating Game. They are an open stage where potential partners and jealous rivals can witness one's every move -- and every failure.

The need to breed drives all of life, yet, for a few, the odds of success are overwhelmingly against them, so they adopt the most extraordinary mating strategies of all.
