p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · This is XXX rated....seriously....WARNING


If you've ever seen video of big cats mating you know that at the end the female seems more than a bit pissed off and often swats at the male. The theory is that the male's penis is barbed and that makes for rather uncomfortable mating. I've only seen lions doing it and never got a chance to photograph the how should I put it, the offending member. Anyway, while looking through 2013 images tonight I hit the male anatomy jackpot when it comes to cats. A male cheetah was lounging around and seemed to just be grooming himself...well, it appears it was a bit more than that....but other than the obvious self sexual stimulation he might be enjoying the photo clearly shows those little barbs on his penis....It's pretty obvious why lady cheetahs (lions and leopards too) don't overly enjoy the experience. It is thought that the barbs help stimulate ovulation.
So, the first shot is just of the cheetah as we found him and the second of the cheetah and his "barbs"....I feel so dirty now
But seriously if you are uncomfortable with the last two image please don't look...it is really meant as an educational photo and not a titillating one. If some are uncomfortable with it please let me know and I will remove it as I don't want to offend anyone.
Eric

2 Those pale spots that you see are the barbs or spines

3 I placed an arrow to one of the barbs but you can see there are many of them....ouch!

yes all cats have the same type with the barbs even domestic - and they always seem to be in a lot of discomfort when separating - we saw a bunch of lions this past spring and all the growling and facial expressions sure made it look painful -

The barbs disappear when they get neutered. But, that's not a solution for his wife either..

Thanks Ken...I found this fascinating as I've looked for images in the past that might show these and never saw even one

I do understand this is a typical cat trait but I had never seen and certainly never photographed them before.

That's an interesting fact I didn't know...maybe that's were the term barber comes from....we remove your cajones and the barbs disappear too.

Great stuff, Eric. This post drove me to google for a reason. In doing so, I came across an interesting article, claiming that our own very early ancestors possessed a similar trait in the male anatomy. Fortunately, that DNA code disappeared over 700,000 years ago. Perhaps it will some day happen for the cat species as well.

If anyone is interested, here is the link to the article:

Thanks Ed..and thanks for the article...I suspect there was a natural selection to males that were less barbarous ....I think Dan Brown can find that code again and write a new novel.
