Different animals have different forms of penis adapted to the female genital tract or lack thereof. The insects carry out traumatic insemination, penetrating the abdominal structure of the female, while the rattlesnakes have a pointed hemipene to enter their female. Visitors see images of animals (bull, duck, rattlesnake, spider, platypus, beetle) and must identify which penis, all of the same size, belongs to whom.
