Talk:Abbott's booby

Dodgy claims
There are a lot of dodgy statements in this article. A stand-out example: It says these birds live up to 40 years,   and then says that 120 years spans three generations. This is nonsensical. Humans can live up to 100 years, and even longer, but we don't say that 300 years spans three human generations. In human populations, looking at the typical age difference of an individual and its grand-parent,   thats about 40 to 60 years,  not 300 years.Eregli bob (talk) 14:21, 16 December 2012 (UTC)

Weirdly, it's what is written in the source from the Australian Government....Casliber (talk · contribs) 20:49, 16 December 2012 (UTC)
