POLAND Wolsztyn (Titan and Titania)
Re: POLAND Wolsztyn (Titan and Titania)
So probably (using the example of Kinderek) this method of raising black storks is not successful. It's fantastic that he is alive, but it seems that he will never be a wild bird again.What a pity

Hi Lena,
as you know, it’s important not only to minimize contact with humans (including visits by various groups of people) and dogs, but also to avoid contact with White Storks.
The best option is adoption into a nest with chicks of a suitable number and age. However, with Black Storks this is very difficult to achieve. It has been successfully done in the past — for example, in the Czech Republic (the first Black Stork chicks at the Makov–Čížová Rescue Station) and also in Estonia, as we know.
Btw. I remember the difficult decision-making of Dr. Anderwald (we were in written contact) and everyone involved in the Kinderko case (but also experts in Estonia - Bonus and her siblings).

Hi Marika,
yes, of course we know this, but despite this knowledge we sometimes hope for a miracle.
