    Phenomenal catches, poor dears have no privacy for their amorous lives! Yet, I’m surprised by the contrast in their sizes, not having thought males that much larger than females.

      Karen, I suspect that privacy is a human construct. The fact that mating among animals often takes place in front of others of their own species (let alone other species) suggests that privacy is an unknown concept for them.
