Whales don't need marriage counselling: study.

Yes, someone had to study this due to growing fears that the high divorce rate among humans was going to permeate the animal world and destroy life as we know it. Can you imagine if divorce lawyers were all suddenly snapped up by orangutans and there were none left for Donald Trump and Joan Collins? Horrors! But not to worry. Killer whales, at least, kiss and make up soon after disagreement.

Eight of the disputes were between a mother and a father, for which the female would chase the male, who would be trying to evade her.

After several minutes of chasing, the two would split apart as to "cool down", and then reconcile by swimming side-by-side for about six to ten minutes, what Noonan calls an echelon - or synchronous - swim.

If you're wondering what caused the initial tiff, sources say it's because the guy whale left the toilet seat up and the chick whale fell in. She would have forgiven him even sooner if he hadn't begun calling her "Tsunami Mami."
