Despite the fact that efforts are made to ensure they are not imprinted on humans, they are naturally confiding, even friendly. Many have been shot since the project started, despite a great deal of publicity raising awareness of the birds. Such an intimate encounter with one of the world’s rarest birds was a memorable experience.

Note how friendly bear cubs are to humans vs adult bears. Unless adults were raised from cub to adult by humans. My theory is that the transition from a close relationship with their moms to be suddenly chased off makes bears angry and they have resentment. submitted by /u/relesabe [link] [comments]

Some might even protest at being kept separate, raising their voices as they eye the main conference birds with hungry intent. Even if the birds could speak like humans, their instincts would still come into constant play. To maintain order and keep the avian peace, some form of security would be necessary.

For the next four years, the bird will not touch land.

That’s an old wives’ tale that says bird won’t take care of a baby bird with a human smell on it–not true at all. If you cannot find the nest or it’s too destroyed, do not try and raise a chick this young. It’s illegal to raise wild birds (even orphaned ones) without state and federal permits.

A pet cat raising orphaned ducklings! Explanations are simple: only a mother rabbit or a highly trained rehabilitator has a chance of raising and releasing a healthy wild bunny. That is, until the ducklings grow up, are released into a pond, and greet the local feral cat colony as long-lost relatives.

Laysan albatrosses are ocean-dwelling seabirds who have 6-foot wingspans, weigh 7-8 pounds, occasionally sleep while flying, and rarely land except to raise their chicks. The oldest Laysan albatross was last seen raising a chick on Midway Atoll in 2016, at age 66. They are docile and devoted parents who will not leave their nests.

This raises an interesting question: Did these early birds have four wings, or three tails?).
