Pollution making animals go crazy

A new study has revealed that environmental pollution is responsible for making animals behave in an increasingly bizarre fashion.

According to the New Scientist, the research published in the journal 'Animal Behaviour' has revealed that pollution was found to affect several activities in animals including mating and parenting, nest-building, learning, predator avoidance, foraging, activity levels and even balance in animals.
