Being 'abandoned' by the wife for raising a good child
Raising children is a hard work. For men, it's crazy. As for the male Nazca birds, it is completely insulting. These Nazca birds living in this Galapagos island, being a good father also mean the risk of being " kicked " out of the nest.

"Their herd, males are 50% more than females, so they spoiled for exchanging 'bo' - exhausted because of child care - to find another more prosperous object," Terri Maness at Wake Forest University, USA, said.
Nazca males and females share the task of caring for children. Eggs are incubated for 43 days and need up to 4 months for the young to fly. If the male is devastated because he takes care of the baby, the wife will immediately go to find another replacement. In a study of over 700 females that lasted for 14 years, more than half of the girls searched for strangers.
"Research shows that the ability to break up increases with the success of breeding and raising the birds of this bird," Maness said.
However, the spurned man can recover and rejoin and find his partner next year.
