cloaca

As the researchers report today in Science, mom released a white substance from her cloaca, which her young immediately gobbled up.

It can “breathe” through its cloaca if it needs to.

Not every creature has one — birds, for example, simply eject sperm from their cloaca.

The technique involves massaging a male’s cloaca from the outside with the thumb.

And they’re like, ‘A pangolin kissed a turtle? Hurrrm. … Maybe a bat flew into the cloaca of a turkey and then it sneezed into my chili — and now we all have coronavirus.’
