Have you ever made a heart-shaped card or given candy to your crush for Valentine’s Day? Not surprisingly, humans aren’t the only ones who invest in elaborate displays of affection.

Join Harvard graduate students Emily Kay and Alexis Harrison in an exploration of some of the unusual and bizarre ways that animals search for and win over companions.

Learn why peacocks display their colorful tails, bighorn sheep fight with their horns, and frogs sing songs to express their romantic interest. Free with museum admission.
