Males and Females.. some bored musings for a lonley sunday morning

DogStar May 25, 2003 10:57 AM

Has anyone wondered why the reptiles genders do not have names?

Like Dog and Bitch, Tom and Queen, Buck and Doe, Bull and Cow, Cock and Hen, Boar and Sow, Tiercel and Raptor, even ferrets have Hob and Jill. Mice and rats are bucks and does too.

Why not with reptiles?

Things that make you go hhmmmm.
