Myth # 3.
It’s OK to try to raise a displaced baby wild bird yourself. – FALSE
In the U.S., only people who are licensed rehabilitators, or veterinarians
who occasionally treat wildlife on an emergency basis, may legally care for
wildlife. Otherwise, it is against state and federal laws for people to raise
wild birds.
However, many people outside the U.S. and those in rural areas, and not near a wildlife rehabilitator find it difficult to not care for a displaced baby bird. In these circumstances, research and learn about the species of bird to be cared for, noting its nutritional needs, and keep your contact with the bird to a necessary minimum.
