Why are sparrows everywhere, but not kept by humans?

The sparrow, also known as a housekeeper in my house, is a very common animal in our house. Just a few years ago, when there were trees and farmland at home, when I looked up, many sparrows were circling and flying in flocks on my farm. Some may be tired and stay on the branches to whisper, some may be hungry and fly out to forage for food, and some may just go out for a stroll to see if there is a possibility of encountering the opposite sex.

They are the same as humans, twittering and talking about homely things, each with their own thoughts, they like to make friends, and they will go together.

In today's society, the average family has one or two pets, various breeds of cats and dogs running around the house, and even small hamsters and piglets, snakes and other various animals, people have developed to try to raise everything in captivity, except for sparrows. In the past, some people would raise a sparrow and put it in a cage when they caught it, but it died within two days, so even if people picked up an injured baby sparrow, they would let it recover from its injuries and release it, in order to set it free.

Yes, why is it not easy to feed a sparrow, because you trap it in a cage and can't let it fly freely outside, especially if you keep it alone, even if you give it more expensive food, it won't appreciate it, because you have deprived it of its right to freedom, and you have left it without a home of its own. So I admire the strong and stubborn character of the sparrow, like Tao Yuanming in ancient times, who does not bend his waist for five buckets of rice. Although the sparrow is small, it reveals a strength in its bones, the power that allows us to insist on ourselves.

Life is precious, love is more valuable, if it is for freedom, both can be thrown. What this poem conveys to us is the admiration of freedom. Therefore, for the sparrow, although it is small, but for the sake of freedom and disregard for life pride, it is worthy of our study and deep praise.

The main reason is that sparrows are relatively wild, and they can't eat or drink water after being caught, and they die slowly.

Because sparrows will be very scared when they are in an unfamiliar environment, which will affect their endocrine system.

When a sparrow is caught, the adrenaline rushes dramatically, the heart beats faster, and the blood pressure rises when faced with an unfamiliar environment. After being caught, you will be so angry that you will not eat or drink, and you will soon be angry to death.

I often hear people say, "You can feed anything, but you can't feed sparrows", when I was a child, I do remember that you can catch a sparrow, but you can't keep a sparrow, if you lock it, even if it breaks its head, it has to go out.

In fact, after being picked up, it is difficult to feed wild birds if they are not properly cared for. Sparrows are abundant and close to humans, so the wild birds that are picked up are usually sparrows. Chicks eat a lot of food, eat protein-rich and easily digestible food (insects), and if their feathers have not yet grown, they are afraid of cold, and they are very easy to die of negligence in care.

Adult birds are relatively easy to manage, birds are generally kept in cages, but wild birds that have not been close to people are placed in cages, leaking light on all sides, and all you see are weird and strange environments, and there are two-legged monsters ......A common way to rescue birds is to put them in a dark, towel box, keep quiet, and don't look at the cute and start stroking, otherwise there is a possibility of excessive fright and death. I heard from the old man that the wild sparrows were very angry after being caught, so they couldn't feed them and would die of anger. It is true that sparrows have a relatively big temper, but many people say that once adult wild sparrows are caught and raised, they will not eat or drink until they are angry, which is also reasonable, but there are very few sparrows that are really angry to death.

Let's analyze the causes of death of several sparrows after being caught. Cause of death one: the old, weak, sick and disabled sparrows are easy to die, there are many times only on the road to pick up the sparrows, take home and raise without success, because this situation is mostly old, weak and sick sparrows, in fact, they are already sick, or injured, this kind of sparrow itself is very weak, coupled with the desperate flight in the process of people chasing, and people may be very heavy when they catch it with their hands, it is very likely to scratch the organs in the abdomen, so the bird died in the injury, not angry.

Cause of death 2: The feeding environment is too poor to kill Many people are caught healthy sparrows, but they can't find a suitable place to raise, so they put them in some boxes, or buckle them up with some baskets and other things, and the sparrows are in a hurry to return to the original world, so they will fly around in it, causing a rapid decline in physical strength, resulting in dehydration, at that time, even if it is fed, the bird will not eat, and finally die. Cause of death three:

There are many people who catch healthy sparrows in the wild and are cage-raised, but they are fed some food that the birds don't know at all (cakes, steamed bun dregs, cooked rice, etc.). The bird had no idea that this food could be eaten, so it starved to death.

Because the sparrow is accustomed to living in nature, if you raise it yourself, it will change its living habits, it can't adapt to the new life, and it will naturally die out of sickness, and the sparrow does not have a pet sparrow, and it is really difficult to overlap if you catch it in nature.

Because sparrows are birds that live in free groups, raising sparrows will keep them away from the flock, suffer from some diseases, and eventually die of depression, so it is said that they cannot be raised.

Because once the sparrow is caught, it will lose its freedom and die, so the sparrow cannot be raised.

Because the sparrow is lively and active by nature, it is not suitable for captivity in cages, and it will eventually die of depression if it is forced.

Because after the sparrow is caught, it often does not eat or drink, and hits the cage vigorously, unwilling to be kept in captivity.

Why do old people always say that sparrows can't be fed? After reading it, I finally solved my years of doubts.
