Cool but not even remotely true, all animals engage in sex for fun, they aren't much for family planning.

But even in the sense you meant other animals engage in recreational sex, Japanese macaques are even bisexual.

Sexual intercourse plays a major role in Bonobo society, being used as a greeting, a means of conflict resolution and post-conflict reconciliation, and as favors traded by the females in exchange for food.
I wanna be a bonobo. I wonder if that would automatically make me the lead singer for BO?

BTW, best part of the video is when the elephant picks up one of those long sticks those assholes have been poking him with and flings it at them. I wished he had swatted them all with his trunk.
