Well , that rightful . But then , they also rape baby seals . As it turn out , ocean otters are some of the fully grown sickos of the animal realm .
It takes a lot of resources to feed an otter - they need to run through approximately 25 % of their body weight every individual day . When food is in little supply things can get ugly . Some male will hold otter pups surety until the mother pays a ransom money of food to the male .
But they do n’t just kidnap babies . ocean otter alsorape sister seals to death . Male otter will find a juvenile seaport seal and mount it , as if he were mating with a female otter . alas , part of the conjugation process involves holding the female ’s head under water which ultimately kills the stamp pup ( and over 10 % of distaff otter ) . For over an hour and a one-half , the male otter will hold the seal pup in this position , raping it until it is dead . Sometimes when the seal whelp croak , it is just countenance go and the otter will get down to groom itself .

Bottlenose dolphins
Not DOLPHINS . Dolphins are endearing , right-hand ? The friendliest of all sea animals . Wrong . Dolphins are full dork . for certain , they are incredibly reasoning , always look like they ’re smile , and deliver the episodic stranded swimmer - but that does n’t exempt the fact that they kill for fun and like otter , enjoy a spot of rapine from time to time .
A couple years ago a porpoise wash up on the shore in California that was badly beaten and injure , with several broken ivory . Several more similar sightings were made over the next two years and theinjuries sustained by the porpoiseswas indicative of an attack by bottlenose dolphin . Two dolphins were witnessed ganging up on a porpoise . It was sandwich between them and unable to escape as they threw it in the airwave and biff it repeatedly . The motivation behind the porpicide is nameless . Dolphins and porpoises do not compete for food or soil , and porpoises do not pose a menace to dolphins . It really appear that the dolphins do it for fun .
While it is n’t a wide defend survey , some believe that dolphins kill porpoise to practicekilling baby dolphins . gravely . Dolphins are yet another brute that routinely practices infanticide as a means of driving a female back into estrus . This is fairly common in the animate being realm by the way - it ’s been spotted inlions , meerkats , langursand many more .
And then there ’s the colza . Sexual compulsion is n’t on the dot unusual in the animal kingdom , but dolphin take it to the extreme . Dolphin Male will shape gangs , nobble a female person and then take turn raping her . What happens if there are no females around ? Well , they do n’t turn to seals like the otters do … they just rape a male person instead .

Felis wiedi
margay , which are sometimes know as tree diagram panther cat , are nocturnal cats from southern Mexico down to South America .
Their method is particularly frightful because of how it work the good nature of the prey . It has been discovered in recent years thatmargays hunt club by mimickingthe sound of a baby scallywag in distress . Seriously . Although scientists have key out the imitation as not being very dear , it seems to be fairly effective .
The margay cat hides and then makes a screeching sound that sounds like a baby tamarin that has been spite . An grownup lion monkey , desperately attempt to deliver the nipper , is then eaten by the margay . No honest human activity die unpunished , especially out in the wild . But hey , at least it ’s not more rape - right field ?
Pan troglodytes
Chimpanzees are our closest cousins , so maybe it is n’t too much of a surprisal that they would be included in this list . That pronounce , Pan troglodytes on a regular basis engage in deportment that just does n’t fly in human society .

What ’s bad is thatfemale chimpshave been observed doing the exact same thing to other females , though the motives for this are not as well read .
