What does improbable mean?
Probability is the chance of something happening. If someone tells you there is a “10% chance of rain” on any given day, this means that there is a 90% chance that it will not rain. Of course, if it rains, the probability that it will rain drops to 90% (if not less, since the probability of rain is less than 100%).

If you say that your dog has sex only once every other month, that’s unlikely as well.
