FAQ about Wild life
I found a baby bird on the ground. What should I do?
Baby birds will often leave the nest before they have all their feathers, and before they are strong flyers. If you find a baby bird out of its nest, watch it from a safe distance. Often , the mother has simply gone to fetch the chick a meal and will return soon.
Raising a chick is very difficult, and almost every case the chick has better chance of survival with its mother in the wild than it does in the care of well-intentioned human rescuers.
If you have watched the chick and determined that it´s a true orphan or that it looks very sick,call permitted wildlife rehabilitator in your area.
