Let's be very carefull when we make comparisons between humans
and animals that exhibit homosexual behavior.  Humans do it for
fun.  The animals may very well think that they are procreating
and just have their wires crossed.  One expects odd behavior from
rats if they are placed in an overcrowded environment... an
'unatural' environement if you will.

On the other hand, many animals (rats too) can learn to modify
their behavior if the reward is some sort of pleasure.  Laura's
story about the bull on her uncle's (?) farm is an example that
could be interpreted wither way.
