I have a pet Raven and need some advice2007-11-24 17:22:10

I have a pet Raven called Mary which I found in the woods behind my house. She had a injured wing but I mangaged to bring her back to health. I now keep Mary in an avery and intend on training Mary to attack me to impress my friends..how can i make her angry and attack without be too cruel?

Answers:

My friend works at a popular 'bird keeping place' (forgot the word) and they train there birds of prey there to attach other things for hunting and stuff. For example they have got a 6 month old golden egale at the moment which the are traing to kill hares and foxes. They do this but buying both of these animals dead and keep feeding it to the bird. This is repeted many times untill the bird will only eat them.

One more last note, i wouln't recomend anyone to try and train a bird to attack a person because, esspecialy the bid birds of prey, could actually kill or inflict a lot of damage towards someone.

Maybe you could train her more and reward her after attacking you.

You keep her in a weighing machine?

---

use reward system for that.give your raven fud if it obeys you

---

You need to let it go, it's belongs in it's own environment.

Keeping a raven as a pet is illegal under federal law. You could get in serious trouble if caught. Also wild birds do not deal well with captivity. It could get stressed out and die. If it is still injured report it to the local wildlife department. If it is healthy, release it.

You should find out if there is a bird sanctuary that will take the Raven for you, it needs to be with its own kind and not couped up in a Avery
