Her experiences are framed within the larger scientific histories how once common species become endangered, and of how people and organizations have strategized and explored controversial paths to bring their numbers up and nurture them till they fill our skies. Coyotes took carrion from young Condors and then killed the weakest ones.

In the non-breeding season, male Baya Weavers sometimes enter the basket-making trade, often with considerable success. Meanwhile, the females seem to have a much more relaxing life, at least in this early stage of the breeding season. You can see why here. My cats refuse to even try Fiery Minivets. The dangers of being a geologist.

After securing our passage, I patiently waited for this once-in-a-lifetime experience to a place we have never been and lacked any knowledge of, we were in for a complete surprise.

We also try to re-nest uninjured baby birds so we don’t interfere with a bird’s breeding cycle. Experience shows that bird parents do feed babies in makeshift nests reattached to tree branches, bushes, gutters, and even tree cavity sections duct taped to another tree. Mites will eventually kill the bird.

Is it true that the least I can do is support the engineering of animals who experience less unpleasantness than they would have had they not been engineered that way? Why kill and maim and waste taxpayer dollars--or any dollars--on such things? My objection is: Why do such research when you don't need to? What about being raped?
