RE: I want to be released

in Feathered Friends4 years ago

Not everything is so simple. Flight for a bird is just a tool for getting food, moving. If you feed the birds at home, then they have nothing to fly. This is not my opinion, but the opinion of an ornithologist who has four owls at home and who works as an ornithologist at the airport. Moreover, such poultry cannot be released, they will not survive in the wild.
But you are partly right. Birds need to fly to avoid muscle dysfunctions and, in general, problems with muscles and respiratory tract.
