Evidence that certain birds get divorced

The World

A new study out of the University of Oxford suggests that certain kinds of birds opt for divorce. The study of 232 species found that those who end up separating have long migratory routes. The birds studied are those that are known to breed and raise their young together, and the trigger for the so-called “divorce” is low levels of breeding. The bird that leaves, goes in search of a better breeding partner.
