Are we the unique specie that is always horny or there are others?

Also why the arrive of the “horniess” is that early, 11.17 yo for males and 12.6 yo for females (Means from this paper: Timing of Puberty and Sexuality in Men and Women by Ostovich & Sabini , 2005) I mean this totally make sense for us boys, if you star having sex soon probably you will have more descendants, but this don’t have any benefits (beside is a funny feeling…) for females, Is not the twenties the ideal ages to have babys?
