A gay relationship between two male penguins at a zoo has ended after six years - because one dumped the other for a female.
Harry has left Pepper for another "more attractive" bird - a widow called Linda - at San Francisco Zoo, reports Sky News.
The story has been picked up by many of the leading American newspapers including the Los Angeles Times.
Bloggers have been quick to accuse Linda of being a "home wrecker" who "lives for her own happiness, no matter who gets hurt".

oooh, that's gonna piss off a lot of glbtalphabetsoup types!

Makes me wonder how many of those so called "gay" zoo animals are that way because of a bad male to female ratio. Animals are social, so if all the others are paired off, it would make sense for two extra males to be companion, it doesn't make them gay, unless the zoo has found them trying to mate :whatever: This pair obviously did the normal thing as soon as a female was available.
And the degree of anthropomorphizing that people are doing is ridiculous, calling the female penguin a home wrecker :whatever:

That's right, the female would be a "nest wrecker". :uhsure:
