Michigan zoo offers peek into animals' sex lives

BATTLE CREEK, Mich. -- A Michigan zoo is hosting an exotic, erotic afternoon on Valentine's Day, when consenting adults will get an unabashed look at how wild animals make babies.

WWMT-TV says the $50-per-couple, adults-only event at Binder Park Zoo -- dubbed "Zoorotica" -- is sold out and there's even a waiting list.

Visitors will receive champagne, hors d'oeuvres, a video presentation and a guided tour, including the homes of snow leopards, giraffes, zebras and various primates and reptiles. Some stops will be areas not usually open to the public.

The Battle Creek Enquirer reports that other zoos have offered similar programs -- with cute names like "Woo at the Zoo" and "Jungle Love."
