According to the latest issue of Smithsonian Magazine:
To impress females, male houbara bustards strut, run, flash feathers and emit subsonic booms 18 hours a day for half a year. In young males, the more elaborate the display, the better the sperm. But extravagance has a cost. Scientists in Morocco found that after six years [or four years, according to this post], the most flamboyant males produce a greater proportion of abnormal sperm than do their duller counterparts.
