Wild monkeys began to massively rape the Japanese deer.

According to one version of the scientists, macaques can begin to molest the alien if they are rejected by males of their species.

Researchers first noticed that males and females of Japanese macaques from the beginning of this year massively commit sexual attacks on deer. So, recently scientists from the University of Lethbridge in Canada observed 14 different pairs of monkeys - deer.

In some cases, female macaques interrupted sexual intercourse, begun between other monkeys and deer. However, basically this did not happen. This kind of interaction can last from a few minutes to two hours, scientists assure. Researchers believe that young macaques can chase deer to have sex if they are rejected by males of their species.

Scientists note that sexual interaction between closely related species is unusual, but not unheard of. And the only case of intercourse that occurs between distant species is the sexual attack of royal penguins on Antarctic fur seals
