A dove is a sign of peace Dove: yes, Rest In Peace

When I was a kid I remember seeing mourning dove nests. They make the worst nest in the world. It’s a flat platform of sticks and invariably the eggs will roll out. So doves are not the architects of the bird world.

The comments section is literally more knowledgeable than the video, lol.

Kid: Mom, what's for dinner? Mom: You.

"Here starts the tragedy to the family." as pleasant piano music plays in the background.

bird: *eats baby* background: *ah yes, bring some happy music in here.*

People: “Why can’t we be more like animals, they’re so pure!” Animals: _Abandons sick baby and eats its corpse after it dies_

I love how when she was "rebuilding" her nest, she incorporated the chicks in the structure 😭

There was something up with the babies. Never seen any this lethargic.

She sensed that the baby would not make it, i have seen the same with hamsters, I watched a mother with 6 babes eat one after birth. It happens in nature.

Birds will stop feeding their young if they know they are sick or born with issues.

Crow: CAW CAW, I see you!!! Dove: If I can't have baby neither can you!

I guess doves are minimalists when it comes to nesting material.

And this is why they're rare to see. They have a hard time breeding and keeping them alive kinda like the panda.

This happened with my wife. She ate my first son because he was a fruitcake.

Baby: dies Mother dove: it’s free real estate

I think these animals have a "sixth sense" about the viability of their offspring.

The nest is on a banana plant. Rare to see dove nest on a banana plant.

Crazy how the ad that popped up after the egg hatched was *an egg salad from Zaxby's*

Im not surprised, a lot of animals eat their babies when they are sick or dead. Just sad they died in the first place

Mama bird: You are indeed a "sweet baby" my child

Man:*brings.baby back at nest* Mother bird:*so you have chosen death*

The wife is telling the husband.. when are you going to get the lawn lawn finished. Husband bird replies.. dammit Leslie you knew that the hawk was out here for the last 3 days.. and then the cat almost got me twice . Wife replies.. yes the cat ohh so scary.. he's so fat I bet Martha's husband gets his chores done.. well maybe you should have mated with Martha's husband.. I'm going out. Conversation @4:53

At 4:37 you can tell the chick is sick and dying, Dove knows there is something wrong and will abandon its young to their fate, happens all the time in nature, in other bird species the strongest chick pushes out its sibling so it has a better chance to live, in nature there is no emotional feelings, only the instinct to survive.

Egg: *Hatches* Mother bird: It’s treason then.

I put you in this world and I can take you out of it just went to a whole other level.

This variety of bird usually known as 'spotted dove' is a very mild and harmless bird. Generally in Kerala, a southern state in India, it is called as Aripravu since it feeds mainly on Ari/Rice & paddy. Some villagers consider it as a symbolic representative of hindu goddess (hemambika). Now-a-days, hybrid varieties of this bird is reared by many in their houses. This bird never eats its kids. After hatching, it rolls out the egg shells or takes away in its beak and puts somewhere else. In the video, we can see how innocent the bird is as it does not know that the baby is about to fall down. Again, after confirming death of its kid, it carries the dead body in its beak for throwing somewhere away from the nest. Any how, the quality of the video and your patience deserve merit.

The tragedy started before the crows. You can see that one baby is dead and not breathing, and the other is in the process of dying (mouth open and gasping for air) when the cooing starts. The cooing isn't normal cooing either. This is a mother who knows that her attempt at raising a family has failed and is grieving over her loss. Though ravens will sometimes steal babies from a nest, they usually wait until the parents are away getting food and sneak in surreptitiously. Ravens far more often are on nature's cleanup patrol. They probably know that there is one dead chick in the nest, and that another one is dying, and are just waiting to grab up a free meal. The mother is stalwart and not willing to abandon her sick baby, and the crows move on. The baby is not responding as it normally would, and since it won't raise it's head to feed, the mother assumes it is dead. She is trying to rebuild the next so that she can use it again in another attempt at raising a family. Note that in the picture where the dying chick is being pushed out, the dead chick is already gone. Aside from it's behaviour, you can tell that this is a very sick chick because it continues to hold it's mouth open, it is unable to raise its head, and it is taking on a rather blanched look, which is indicative of liver and kidney failure. I don't know what happened to the chicks to cause this, but under the circumstances there are two three possibilities; The chicks may have been hatched with some sort of defect which caused them to not be able to uptake the nutrition from their parents' pigeon milk (I note that in the parts where the parent is trying to feed the babies, you don't see any of it trailing as it usually does), the babies may have caught some sort of a bug which the parents had developed a resistance to, or the chicks may have succumbed to a poison of one sort or another which was not present in large enough quantities to kill the parents, but was enough to kill the much smaller and more delicate babies. If this banana tree was in a banana plantation, the later possibility becomes much more suspect. The mother dove does not have hands, so what is she supposed to do about it when the chick falls the second time? She also knows, unlike the person who made this video, that the chick is dying, and that it's continued presence in the nest will only prolong its suffering. It's a harsh reality, but that's life in the wild. Dying of exposure, or being picked off by a predator after falling from the nest shortens the time suffering, and in the end is better than dragging it out. This mother bird is not a bad mother. She is doing the best she can with what is available to her. The maker of this movie does not tell us how the chick got back in the nest. One has to wonder at the end when the mother begins to eat her dead chick if there was some sort of nutritional issue going on. I think back to the indications at the beginning that there was no Pigeon milk being produced. The other thing is it never shows the mother actually eating the baby. It only shows her trying to get a hold of it to remove it from the nest. Again, note that the other chick disappeared long before this time and since it was already dead in the cooing part of the video it was probably carried away from the nest in the same manner. It is an instinctual response which is there to keep from attracting predators to the nest, just as egg shell cleanup is. They will do this whether the nest is reused or not. Due to the interference of the video maker in putting the dying baby back in the nest, the nest would have most likely been abandoned. Ignorance leads to judgments and assumptions which are often incorrect. That is the case in this video.

The baby didn't look well before it fell out. Should have been more lively. Maybe the mom didn't feed them enough, or maybe they were sick and weren't going to make it. If the babies are sick and weak and cannot beg for the feeding and come up for it, then the parent bird cannot feed them. It's a joint effort. I think they may have been sick. That's sad, but it does happen.

Nest: Literally made of bananas Dove: Nah I’ll eat my kids instead

Excuse me madam your baby fell down from nest Mother: Yes

"You're so cute I could just eat you up"

To the ones saying it’s terrible or mean or just horrible....it’s called nature. Only the strong survive. Happens with all animals especially birds

after over 150 million years of bird evolution (or you could say 3.7 billion years ago for life in general), nature "knows what it is doing". A complex interplay of innumerable factors dictates those behaviors, of which the primary purpose is to preserve and propagate the species genes most effectively.

Baby bird: shifts around uncomfortably Momma bird: aw hell no

Well they are birds. Mouse eats its own babies even alive. It's common the one who is sick or failed to thrive ends up eaten by the hungry mother.

The one baby is sick or something, that's why she pushed it out. It wasn't acting normal. I raised pigeons and doves and it was laying down on its side when it should of been sitting up.

Someone: "A dove is a sign of peace" Meanwhile: crunch

*The bird: woah who put this tasty fluffy ball here*

Precious footage, thanks for your sharing, Best Regards.

It amazes Very Good Really Appreciate... best of luck.... i am also a new KZfaqr i can understand your hard work... love and respect from Saudi Arabia...

This Dove must be a minimalist, her nest building skills certainly proves it!

My dog once had a litter of 6 puppies. One seemed to have Down syndrome or was visually and physically defective in some way. She often never feed it or paid attention to it. One time we came into our back yard and she had buried her in a small grave in the backyard ALIVE! We intervened and would give the puppy “private” feedings with mom. And other wise spoiled her rotten. She grew and was a happy active puppy tho she was still limited. Vet said she was healthy but had some type of gene disorder, but should be fine. She played with her siblings and seemed happy. We kept her inside in a castle puppy bed. The other 6 dogs slept together in our garage so they can have access to the backyard. On day after she was only 7 months we came into the room to find her dead. She died in sleep seemingly healthy. My dog was very sad which was confusing because she tried to bury her. Her second littered. She crushed the runt when no one was around using her body weight. We just trusted her and Gave him an extravagant funeral. Her third litter all survived. Though some had extra toes. On the back legs.

Mother Birds is like human. They go crazy. Like my wife. Crazy.

Here is a thing, animal can also be stressful while parenting babies. This is a great video to show how the mother takes care of her 2 babies somehow I feel l like the mother knew that she has been watched by something, that may lead to the tragic end. However, I learn to keep distance from dove because dove was nesting right by my mirror window and had 2 eggs, I did not know dove would be that shy and easy-to-freaked. I opened my window to see how many eggs they got, I scared both of them away, saw they got 2 eggs. The sad end had shown later that they never return to nest ever again. I was really pissed to see the 2 left over eggs for days. It's DOVE!

When I read the title I laughed so hard at "EATS UP"

Mom: I sense this kid is not going to make it. Millennial bird: give me, give, gimmie, gimmie!!

Mom: Meal time! Babies: Yea! Some good hekkin throat milk!

Why are there so many downvotes? Are they conflating the actions of the bird with the uploader?

Very beautiful video 👌 Thanks 🌷

Mom: “You born ugly. I’m gona give you a second chance.” Kid: “???!”

That nest needed some help, them babies didn't stand a chance

Aww, doves are so cute! Awww, look, it has a baby, too! Isn’t tha-wait. Hold on, what’s it doi-oh. Oh, oh my. 😟

Lil birb: shits in nest mother: *im about to end this mans whole career*

Can we just admire that the dove decided to settle down in a banana

This bird's name is Casey Anthony.

The mother went 'Aw, now fly bitch' a bit too early

The mother dove be talking to the neighbour bird like: “JANET, you will not believe these kids, they drive me crazy, I work all day night just to vomit in their mouths, it’s INSANE “

POV: your watching this on Christmas because 2020's christmas doesn't hit right and you are sitting in your room

The baby looked sick, because the mother bird don't given food feeding of the baby,this is what happened to the baby. I believe, because the sound of the croow bird,it makes the bird become scary. So the bird don't want to keep the baby anymore. This kind of bird species, it so many in my country.

Once upon a time 2 lover pigeon like this build a nest in our tree they lived until their children which is two grow up until flew it is very happy moment. That i felt.

The crow the omen cause her too flip her mind he told her too push her baby out the nest

She did not eat him she took him to throw him away, the foves are never feeding on neat, crows do, but doves and pigeons never. Like they take the egg left over and baby poop, they take it away to throw it out to keep nest clean.

8 minutes and no actual footage of the title of the video....

She is NOT eating it, she is removing it from the nest

Uhh jeez these birds couldn't build a nest if there life counted on it

Here's the fact, if the mother dove finds out her chick was 2 male chicks, she will choose 1 to live, and chosen one will feed and the unlucky one will die of hunger or push to fall. Maybe when you return the fall chick back in the nest, her mother confused which chick is the chosen one., and push to fall the wrong chick. Please 🙏 next time don't interrupt the process of nature. To avoid this kind of incident. By the way she's not eating her died chick, she's cleaning the nest for her future eggs. God bless you 🙏🙏🙏

She don't eat, she put out.

That’s so cute and I like doves

That dramatic music, lol. Oh please.

I can recommend a good counselling session for the family.

She didn’t eat it. She got rid of it. Why do you think they get rid of the shell? Because it’s old and dirty. The same with the baby. It was old and dirty so what did she do? She got rid of the body. Plus those babies looked a bit off.

With this music ending is so funny 😂

I am hatching a mourning dove at the moment... its about to break in its shell the first one... the mother abandoned both eggs after a scare so After confirming that shes not coming back I went ahead and hatch the eggs... I also have another newly fledged dove in my care because she flew through our glass door and hurt itself so I nurse It until its ok. I tamed her in a matter of 5 minutes. I Have learned that mother doves when she discovers that her baby is sick or have abnormalities she will push her baby out of the nest so to save the other baby that is healthy. It is important for them to keep their lineage or if babies are sick she will throw both out of the nest or eat them and strive to get another male dove so she can once again lay eggs. In this instance. I Think she got threatened by the crow didnt leave the babies behind so she planned it already, she knows that she cant feed her babies becoz if she leaves crow will eat them so she immediately build the nest again so to prepare for hatching another pair probably. Since the kids havent been fed for a couple of days she knew they cant be saved after a couple of days it died finally she left to find another male dove.

This dove is smarter than, most people who comment here.

Everyone why this or this is that. Life is crazy y’all. Stay blessed. My grandpa died December 29 2019 hit by a car. January 6 2020. Other grandpa stage 3 cancer. April 2020 my step granddad died in his sleep. THERE ARE NO RULES TO LIFE

It did not eat the dead one. It was trying to pick the body of the dead baby. That to the uploader might have looked like it was eating the dead one. Once it picked the body of the dead one, the dove took the body outside the nest.

Once again, amother exemple of..... mother's love----

(7:57) After some time it findes the that the baby incubating by her is dead for no reason!

Fascinating. .my angel bird...thats another story .. Thank you for this 🙏💙🕊

I'm pretty sure that it isn't only the mother looking after the babies because in most pigeon breeds both male and female incubate the eggs and look after the babies.

Bruh i just searched up "what do doves like to eat" bc i there's a dove living in my backyard and then this video pops up😀

What survival instinct the crows voice executed in the dove to do this

She has to a teenage mother. She doesn’t know how to built and maintain nest and of course taking care of chicks.

Mother birdie just wasn't ready for single motherhood just yet....

Omg.. Awesome footage!!

Well she won't be receiving the palm of the best mom...

This is horrifying. 😭

How do those birds still exist? They can't build a nest , can't keep track of where their chicks are and let's them die. It's amazing the species still is alive.

The tragedy here is nest placement. Mother was not pushing him out on purpose. The baby she stopped feeding was likely too cold to offer a proper feeding response. The dead baby she ate was one that died a while ago. They have to discard dead babies one way or another as dead invite predators and harmful germs which can kill their other brood. By eating them, they get back some of the nutrients they expanded.

The mother finishes feeding it then she was like naw I'ma need that back But in all seriousness that was really sad 😢😢😢

nest mites. once a nest has mites..theres nothing that can be done.

"Thorat milk" ... 🤣 ... it took me a few seconds to realize the author meant "throw up milk" ... yeah a weird way to say regurgitated chewed up food 😬

The comment section along with this background music is what makes me choking in laughs.

Mother bird hears a crow, isn't under threat. Kills her babies. What?

That’s a little bad and sad but I guess it’s just nature

That Dove needs to learn how and where to build a nest

7:43 epic music tho
