From a psychological point then, animals have evolved to be nice to their kin, particularly their children, and particularly in birds and mammals. About160 species of rare birds live in the swamps and prairie there. But birds or the wind can reintroduce them to the land. When we think of species we tend to think of mammals or birds, which are pretty well known. It's one of the most important for understanding the origin of birds. And not only birds. With illnesses like the flu, on the other hand, the virus that causes it mutates a lot and can live in a number of different organisms, including humans, pigs and birds, he said.

Wildlife, insects, frogs, birds, and soil organisms are able to play their roles in the tapestry of ecology, and we are able to play ours, without interference or compromise. And, for reasons as yet undiscovered, the embryonic neck- skin of birds produces more retinoic acid than the embryonic skin from any other part of their bodies.
