Wild bird rescue plan |
The Wild Bird Rescue Conservation Center was
established in 2007 and was named Midway House. It was named because
when people collected the young birds of collared scops owl fledglings,
which caused severe whitening of feathers due to white bread feeding.
It saved her life after more than 1 year of treatment, but it lost the
ability to survive in the wild. Because it was raised by bread, it was
called Bread. The house that got it halfway became an area for bird
rescue, care, long-term containment or progressive wild birds release,
which can also teach people the concept and principles of wild bird
rescue.
However, the treatment of injured birds involves many
details. After returning to school, the teacher helped us to invite Ms.
Kuang-Shan Hsieh, the leader of the rescue team of the Wild Bird
Society of Taipei, to tell us the story of the treatment of injured
birds.

The teacher told us the way to judge whether the
bird is injured. We need to watch the bird ’s eyes, feather integrity,
and whether the feet are intact before we think about the treatment.
There are four main points in the simple principle of treating the
injured bird, that is placement, insulation, feeding, don't feed it,
and don't feed it to eat. The reflection in the
glass can make the bird mistakenly think there is another world, and
fly at high speed and cause injury. Therefore, in order to avoid such
problems, a lot of raptor stickers are affixed to the glass, but the
effect is not good over time. Later the use of stripe stickers allows
birds to judge that this is a place they can’t fly through and reduces
injuries. Little birds practice flying is the biggest source of
casualties. These flying birds fall to the ground and what should
humans do to deal with it? If the injury is not serious, and the female
bird may continue to take care of it, but if the human is too close, it
will cause the bird to panic. Furthermore, you can use a branch or a
stick to send the bird back to the tree.

If the injured bird is determined to be sent to
the rescue center, pay attention to the transportation problem. You can
prepare boxes, lay newspapers, place thermos bottles, and do a good job
of placement, so as to ensure that the injured bird will not be injured
twice due to the transportation process. |
