A guy will go to great lengths to impress a woman. But pufferfish and Bowerbirds make us all look a little cheap.
More than just a bag of air, a male pufferfish works nonstop for a week straight creating an ornate design on the seabed in an apparent move to attract a female and create a safe and elegant place for her to lay eggs.
In Australia, Bowerbirds build elaborate homes with twig-thatched roofs and carefully arranged gifts on the outside in hopes a girl will come a-knocking.
We at Cult of Mac often salute cutting-edge design, so we couldn’t resist reposting these BBC videos to marvel at these creative creatures and their aesthetically pleasing mating rituals.
