This is emphatic behavior, but do know that in almost all circumstances the result is that the animal rescue centers will euthanized animals that is not endangered, has protected status, or has local biological diversity benefits. Seagulls and feral pigeons in particular are very unlikely to leave the center alive.
This also happens for larger animals like seals pups that end up separated from their mothers. From the mouth of a animal rescue centers here in Sweden, if one is lucky a eagle will see it and nature will take care of it. Only if sufficient numbers of day has passed and the pup is in clear agony will they pick it up to then have it euthanized at the center.
That said, animals should not suffer unnecessary so "rescue" in that context is still a good thing.
- codezero 8y agoAbsolutely. The crow I rescued was euthanized. They give you a number to check on the animals you bring in. That said, they provide great care and release thousands of rescues each year, and if they are too injured they at least get a humane end. It tears me up watching an animal die slowly.
