- ars 11y agoVery linkbaity title - content of article is not in the slightest like title. And the title on HN is not the title from the BBC article anyway. Better title: When Starlings drown accidentally, group mentality causes them to drown in groups. Not an exciting title, but accurate.
- miander 11y agoActually, that title isn't accurate either because the article doesn't claim that to be the case; it only speculates. Nor does it even rule out some form of "suicide".
