While it’s still up for debate that humans are naturally monogamous, these animals are.

We humans are often put into the monogamous animal category, but many experts continue to debate that stereotype. 

However, there are some species in the wild kingdom who absolutely prefer to mate for life:

* Gibbons: They’re a small, slender tree-dwelling ape. The males and females are about the same size and they spend a lot of time hanging out together, grooming their partner.

* Swans: Their bonds last for many years. You may even see that graceful couple gliding around together for life.

* Black vultures: Not as romantic as swans on the outside, but inside they’re in love. Black vultures are even known to attack another who is caught cheating.

* Wolves: Packs often consist of a male, a female and their offspring - and stick together much like a human family.

* Albatrosses: They travel great distances over the ocean, but will always return to the same place and the same partner.

* Turtle doves: There’s a reason they come in two’s - and they stay that way.

* Bald eagles: They typically mate for life and will only consider another in the event of their partner’s death. 

* Beavers: Not only are they faithful, both parents raise their offspring together. Good beavers don’t stray but bad beavers have been observed cheating.
