For those of you who thought March of the Penguins was the only drama about our tuxedo-sporting friends, you may want to read up on Silo and Roy.

From The New York Times:

And Silo and Roy looked so happy together.

The two male chinstrap penguins had found each other in the big city. They had remained faithful. They had even raised a child. But then, not too long ago, they lost their home. Silo’s eye began to wander, and last spring he forsook his partner of six years at the Central Park Zoo and took up with a female from California named Scrappy. Of late, Roy has been seen alone, in a corner, staring at a wall.

My heart goes out to you, Roy.
