A two-part miniseries about sexual selection – unique behaviors, elaborate displays and special adaptations that determine who picks whom, who mates with whom, and who produces the offspring that carry genes into the next generation.

Scientists around the world are making amazing new discoveries about the complex nature of courtship throughout the animal kingdom, employing cutting-edge technology, robotics, chemical analysis, special cameras, even computer animation. It`s a sexual education that takes us way beyond the birds and the bees. Filmed and presented in high definition.

Academy Award-winner F. Murray Abraham narrates this NATURE miniseries.

Part One: What Females Want – In the animal world, females decide. But their decisions may not always be what others expect. What is it they are looking for? A special sound or smell? A flashy display? A beautiful mane? A booming voice? Babysitting skills? It could be any or all of the above.

Part Two: What Males Will Do – Apparently, there is nothing a male will not do for the right to mate with a female – dance, sing, make music, fight, overdress, change body colors, develop astonishing anatomy, illuminate, even agree to be eaten alive. You’re nobody until somebody loves you.
