It's a tragedy but it has a lot of comic relief moments.

Not everyone appreciates dark humor, though.

Some male octopuses will mate by detaching one of their arms and giving it to a female before swimming away

Tell them about that deep sea fish where the male attaches itself to the female, literally becomes like an attached testes vessel in some kind of symbiotic relationship where they are one big hermaphrodite until the male withers away as a dessicated husk and falls off.

Nvm I just did

I read that it's hella hard to get cheetahs to breed in captivity because apparently they have a complex mating ritual that involves the male chasing the female over long distances before copulation, and it seems to be a necessary factor in getting them to reproduce. Or maybe it was jaguars. Some big cat that wasn't lions or tigers for sure. I think it was in The Sixth Extinction that I read about it.

So why is it considered a comedy

The original definition of "comedy" and "tragedy" weren't "funny" and "sad", they were more indicators of whether or not a story was going to have a happy ending, or if the main character was going to be broken by the gods or their own hubris and suffer in a way that the audience can sympathize with. It's the definition mostly applied to stuff like Greek plays and Shakespeare.

Though you could also chalk it up to cultural differences. If you were living in a time with a 50%+ infant mortality rate where you could die from plague, famine, or neighboring tribes/nations coming to kill you to take your stuff any given week, you probably wouldn't be inclined to smile all that much either.

Hey, it ends with the world burning and everybody dying, that's plenty funny enough.

The Song of Songs is good for that sort of thing, too. It's basically erotic fanfic that wound up in the Bible somehow.
