Two Lizards Fucking

I know, I should be posting a picture of this, but didn't have my camera with me. I was out in the garden picking a pepper, and I encountered two lizards fucking. The smaller male was riding on top of the female, sort of over to one side. The female remained mobile; she was capable of great speed. This is no doubt a tremendous evolutionary advantage -- stationary fucking lizards are more vulnerable to predators. It made me happy to see an activity that had nothing to do with human reality whatsoever.
