F*ck A Duck

Why are male and female animals often so different? Is sexual coercion a driving force in evolution—or is the story more complicated? In this provocative deep dive, we unpack the science of sexual dimorphism, from force mating in ducks to surprising anatomical adaptations across the animal kingdom. Prepare for a wild, uncomfortable, and fascinating exploration of power, reproduction, and the evolutionary arms race between sexes. This is a public episode.
