A bird
" I...
Do you remember the biology lessons you gave me?"
" Of course, I do."
"... You once told me about birds.
If a little bird falls out of its home-"
" nest."
" yes. Of its nest."
" the bird most likely dies."
" Right.
But you taught me if a human tries to save the bird,
pick it up.
Put it back in,
the bird won't be accepted.
The bird's parents won't recognise the child as theirs, because the smell is different."
Even if saved.
It will die.
