We have no real way of knowing, but we surmise that he was raised illegally by a member of the public, and “imprinted.”.

“It’s bad enough that these dogs were treated cruelly and raised in horrible conditions,&# said Tim Rickey, the ASPCA Senior Director of Field Investigations and Response. “Being chained 24/7 is no way to live—they have lived miserable lives, and are just starved for human contact.&#. .

Shark Attack Experiment: LIVE will feature a team of free-divers and conservationists putting their safety on the line to separate myth from reality and dispel negative myths about sharks while raising public awareness about shark species which are being driven to extinction.

When I started blogging in May of 2006 I was very snarky. Snark defined blogging back then. While other people might trade barbs or even turn to fisticuffs, I'd dig deep for the most hurtful thing I could say, in the fewest words, and deliver it without even raising my voice. No one is assigning human traits to nonhumans.

I haven't had time to blog--or even to work out daily like I used to--but that doesn't mean I don't read all my e-mails and go to every link everyone sends me. Imagine if kids in 4-H were taught how to raise dogs for dogfighting (not a perfect analogy, I know). I want humans to stop using sentient nonhumans for their own gain.

They are a commensal species, meaning that they are a wild animal that lives in close association with humans, not as a pet or as a farm animal but more like a parasite, to the extent that it is hard to find them in truely wild settings, and it is hard to find human settlements without them. because of collisions with vehicles.

Apparently, some bird photographers think that any human artifacts shown on a bird photo immediately spoil the whole photo. And of course, on a rather rare occasion for this blog, an almost perfect link to the next bird (my favorite transition is still the Monty Python one: “And now for something completely different”).

I suspect that many readers of this blog are Christians but not vegetarians. First, I will raise some questions that usually are not asked, let alone answered, by moral vegetarians. In recent years another type of justification has been given: vegetarianism has been justified in terms of human suffering, rights, etc.

Just as it takes a village to raise a child, it sometimes takes a “village” of rehabbers to save threatened wildlife. As a result of human interference, four Chimney Swift nestlings had to be rescued. For the next two and a half weeks Sue continued to raise them, along with four other swifts she had in care.

It seems the ones I got decent photos of are all juveniles – it generally seems to be easier to get photos of juveniles as they have not quite learned to avoid humans. Thank god that this does not apply to humans. Sometimes being a member of the human race feels very embarrassing. Not this one though.

Way back when I started what turned out to be my thesis research (on humans), it became important for me to learn about bird migration. I was involved in the study of human movement and navigation on land, and there was a lot of research coming out about bird navigation. Another question this raises has to do with migration itself.

The posts are on diverse aspects of bird sound, from recording equipment and techniques to taxonomy to identification to hearing loss (human, not bird), and make an entertaining complement to the field guide.

In contrast, the females need to make sure not to get duped into raising actual cuckoos – the buntings are a targeted host species ( source ). So assuming that these results are transferable to humans, parents should feed their offspring regularly (first finding) but restrict themselves to one child (second finding).
