Non-reproductive sexual behavior in animals important component in the lives of animals. It has been established that the limbic neural mechanism that generates reactions are very similar across all mammals. Many studies have concentrated on the brain reward system and how similar it is across mammals. Through extensive research, scientists have been able to conclude that the brain reward system in animals is extremely similar to that of humans. The mechanism of core pleasure reaction is significantly important for animals and humans. In a case study, female Japanese macaques were studied to find evidence of possible female copulatory orgasms. Through the study the frequency of
