I see there's two religious trolls above. One pretending to be a typical creationist Christian. The other being an "I'm not religious but I have a symbol of my faith but it's not really a faith and I'm going to preach about it to you" atheist.

Maybe they are monogamous because they can't find someone else who will take them because they are ugly? I had a pet gerbil no one wanted once. So I had him. Great character. He understood what I said and acted on my advice. RIP Clive :(

The investigation of 35 offspring born to 17 owl monkey pairs turned up no evidence of cheating, and the male and female monkeys that cared for the young were the infants' true biological parents.

An additional analysis of 15 pair-living mammals found a strong connection between a species' faithfulness and how much of a role the males took in caring for their young.

Monogamous non-cheating, with both parents raising the offspring ( :marseyjamming: ) is a good thing?! :marseypog#ger!s:

By that logic I wonder why the US black community has so many deadbeat dads alongside a rising population of deadbeat dads across all races.
