A science teacher showed us a video of a salmon ejaculation in 8th grade and mainly I wondered why she thought we’d need to see that

Just learn about sex the old fashioned way: getting pregnant.

I learned about it from kids at summer camp and a penthouse we found under the leaves in an alley by a middle school when I was 6. Super healthy.

But knowledge is dangerous (to the bad guys)

Why no videos like that of bears or horses or humans? I guess I could take it the other direction and picture videos of bugs laying eggs... that seems normal... I suppose fish are different enough from people for it to seem sort of normal.

Reproductive methods are vastly different across all the species we can observe and thats deeply important to forming hypotheses about evolutionary science among other things. Its education!

In what other situation do we watch videos of animals ejaculating to learn this, though?

In science class

I remember a teacher also showed my class a documentary that covered that, them he commented "wow, jumping in those waters sound great!", everybody laughed.

Also the diluted bird, fish and mammal excrement and urine plus all the decaying animals, insects and plants brings it to a new level for me.

Easier to make the list of things he didn't

Can you elaborate on this? With some sources?
