Animals Evolved

A Mistle Thrush has displayed her strong maternal instincts for her young by puffing herself up to dedicated herself to prevent her chicks from drowning. The thrush has built her nest in a downpipe, hence during rain, its nest would be flooded and her chicks would possibly be drowned.

The female thrush has entrusted herself with duty to protect her young, so much so that she puffed herself up to twice the size of the male thrush to act as a dam in the downpipe. In her peseverance, the duty of feeding the young was left to the father.
