California Condors Surprise Scientists With Two β€˜Virgin Births’ Genetic data revealed that two females laid fatherless eggs

This just gets weirder! ' Two male chicks, known as SB260 and SB517, didn't have genetic contribution from any males in the program, ' Male chicks, from eggs with NO male contribution. Were the mothers chimera or hermaphrodites? Another question I have is would these offspring had they lived to sexual maturity have been viable (can the mate with female condors to produce offspring)? https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/california-condors-surprise-scientists-with-two-virgin-births-180978983/?

The California condor's population stooped dangerously low to 22 individuals in the 1980s, and scientists have been running a captive breeding program since then to save these birds. Frier/Nikon, Scott, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons

The next time some scrote tries to excuse bad behavior as bIoLoGy, remind him of this recent, scientific proof that females go to miraculous lengths to avoid NVM.
