Are you an IDIOT, if they didnt have a partner they wouldn't breed & become extinct,
seriously now, they pair up for life, birds that do pair for life (ie Albatros doves & many others) have no problem getting another partner if one of them die.
European turtle doves winter south of the Sahara desert.
Turtle doves do form long-term pair bonds, but they are not always "for life." They typically mate with the same partner for multiple breeding seasons, displaying strong fidelity to their mate. However, if a partner dies or is unavailable, they may choose a new mate.
The song says 'two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree.' So there would be eleven verses in the song that would include them. The total would be 22 turtle doves by the end of the song.
