Boston.com highlights 14 Valentine’s Day events in Boston. Some of the more eclectic events are:

‘SEX AT THE ZOO’ LECTURE

What makes one lemur attractive to another lemur? Do gorillas court each other the way humans do? Ponder these questions and more at this adult-themed lecture event at the Franklin Park Zoo. Dr. Rory Browne will discuss when it’s better to be in a relationship and when it’s better to be single — in the animal kingdom, that is.

Feb. 10, 6 p.m., $20 for singles, $35 for couples. Not suitable for children. Tropical Forest Pavilion at the Franklin Park Zoo. 617-989-0113 www.franklinparkzoo.org

NAKED SCAVENGER HUNT AT THE MFA

See the Museum of Fine Arts in a whole new way. This scavenger hunt takes you through the building in search of artwork that features nudity. Think Gauguin’s island girls and Roman statues in various states of undress.
