  Your first question is very broad – animals behave in all sorts of weird and interesting ways. I’m not sure what you mean in the second question – I don’t match make animals to each other.
  
  If you mean how do animals find their own partners, there are several different ways. Some animals just mate with anyone else they find, some are very picky and will only choose mates who take their fancy. For example, female stalk-eyed flies watch males doing a dance, and choose the ones who can do it best to mate with. Just like people in a nightclub.
