A lot of times with baby birds, if you pick them up, then the mother will abandon them because of the unfamiliar scent, i hope this doesn't apply to this Chuditch.
@Skittywolf We were not actually involved in the filming of this clip. We found it while editing an outside contract for a client who kindly agreed to us using it. Mammals can be different to birds, in that we know many marsupial mothers will accept her young back inside the pouch, after say scientific trapping etc., and with Chudditch being carnivores I would think/ hope that they would accept them after human handling. But to be honest no one knows. As I say we did not film this.
That's an old wives tale and is completely untrue.
Majority of birds have a terrible sense of smell. If you take a chick that's fallen out of it's nest and put it back in, the mother will accept it. If she doesn't it was nothing to do with your touching it and certainly nothing to do with your scent. <:/
@shinocicada Oh, I never knew that. But I'm pretty sure it applies to wolves and bears since I was watching a show and the people that saved a bear cub had to spray something on it to hide the human scent.
@Skittywolf XD Oh yeah of course bears can smell a human on their cub! But that's because they rely a lot on scent in the first place. :3 Birds pretty much rely on visuals and sound to identify others.

Awww, my goodness. How amazing. Didn't catch everything he said, but that's definitely out of the box with my image of a "kitten."
