Today, I found a bird that had fallen from its nest, so I made a new nest for it in a shoebox and put it as close to the old one as possible. When I checked back on it later, all I found was a chewed-up corpse. FML

Your intentions were so sweet OP, but now you see why birds like to be high up.

Lion King? How about the truth telling king? Science fiction for you.

it was, albeit bad, word play. lying/lion king. #55 took it a little further by defending that scene against "the truth telling king"

Been there OP. When we used to live on acreage I found a wee duckling while cleaning the paddocks and took it in. It stayed inside for a few days until I could put together a pen outside. Despite the fact that it was duckling proof I came out to find it gone but let it go pretty quickly as it was a bit older now. Next day I was playing with my dog in the fenced yard and found some horrid, bloody mess. Didn't take too long to put two and two together. Of all the directions the stupid thing could have run, it ran into the only place it shouldn't have.

simple reason as to why animals get hurt like this, your house is all they know, not the water. you trained it just enough in the short time you had it to teach it that the house was safe and not the water. it's a real shame but still true :/ not saying what you did was bad either, you just let it go too early

I've done that before just to end up trying to stop the Momma bird from killing it. The lesson for next time take the bird inside and look up a bird rescue or wildlife rescue even places like where I live Ut Vet Hospital will take baby birds. It's not that hard to take care of them(well depending on the type of bird) if you wanna try your hand at that. You can find recipes for baby bird food other then using worms just by looking it up. I ended up saving 2 baby blue birds that way. Good luck next time and don't worry about what happened it wasn't your fault.

Never try to put a baby bird back in the nest. Birds won't accept the baby if it senses something wrong. Next time OP take the bird inside and call animal control, they will take the bird or they will give you a number to call for an animal sanctuary and they will take the bird.

Birds will renest if they sense something wrong, but they won't kill their hatchlings. The problem was that it needed to be put back in its actual nest.

Well at least you did not find out it was a potato and not a bird.
