My grandparents who are now gone due to cancer and diabetes would never act like these people on here it floors me .

It’s that easy so negative people please try it your suppose to be someone that your children and grandchildren look up to . Let get this world back to the good OL days please .

[@LottieSue]

I'm wondering if, "standing your ground" , really works with a wild animal that reacts out of instinct. Do you think it could be like trying to train a lion? Can you ever really trust them or domesticate them? I'm scared for Lester , family members and animals. Everyone - especially the animals are behaving like they are walking on egg shells. Praying, for creative ideas to deal with this knotty problem.

Please don't generalize like that. Lester has said that many supporters are older women. I'm 65 and LOVE and support Ima Survivor.

[@gingerpanda4707]

When fighting Carl off, it’s better to bring his neck down and not lift it up as you try and push him back. An ostriches main defense is kicking. They can kick with a force of 2,000lbs per square inch. That’s a lot! He can kick so hard, he can still easily cause major internal injuries, even through your cardboard armor. Also, his wing flips are not happy movements. Wing flipping is a warning signal. It’s his first way of saying “Hey! Back off I’m uncomfortable!” If you continue to advance and ignore his warnings he will then puff out his wings to make himself look bigger in the hopes of scaring you away. If you still don’t give him his space, he will then charge in an attempt to chase you away. They are extremely territorial and they typically don’t make good pets unless they’ve been continuously raised around people from a chick. He will most likely never be a lovey dovey pet like the littles or other sanctuary animals. I commend you for rescuing him but with my experience caring for ostriches, he will most likely need a pasture of his own, otherwise he will most likely continue charging you when you enter the littles field.

[@loispeterson657]

He needs a girlfriend like the rest of the males have.

[@backpocketgaming334]

That’s actually why Lester rescued him. He was being aggressive and fighting another male over a female ostrich on the other farm. I don’t think Lester wants to find out if this is a behavior will return if he adds a female to the mix at this point in the rescue. Especially since they are learning as they go with him right now.

[@dianerobertson4894]

Not cursing has to do with respect for your viewers. If you say go elsewhere, we can do that. I'm a Christian and I don't like to hear it either. When I searched for your vides I was surprised to see ADULT LANGUAGE posted on it as a red flag. Cursing is a habit. Just like smoking. It's nasty. And don't forget, God hears you too.

When I volunteered at a zoo, the ostrich keeper said that ostrich normally are submissive to animals that are taller them. That is why they kept the ostriches with the giraffes. Maybe you could carry a tall stick with you when you are in with the babies. I know it would be inconvenient, but maybe you could come up with a way to make it hands free. Also, male ostrich raise their babies, so maybe he thinks of the littles as babies and that is why he is so protective of them.

I was just thinking that Carl needed a bell as well.. Lol Rick's video was hilarious as well, but he did give some good advice for owning any large animal. Best of luck with Carl, Lester. It's just going to take time and a lot of patience, and maybe a better suit of armor... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I think u should put him with the horses!

[@lorriemiller6750]

@@sandra101705 He was in with the bigs including the horses and he had absolutely no interest in any of the bigs at all.

That guy who made those comments can cancel themselves off your page if they don't like it. I enjoy the fact that you speak your mind and do what YOU love and not try to please everyone.

😂 I love that reaction at the end 😂

[@lisamerriweather6144]

Lester I love your videos and the way you do things , I see the love you have for all your animals , and in my opinion Carl is Bless to have you ! 💖💖

[@sharonfoster4523]

Lester I think you need sturdier body armor I almost died when I saw the card board boxes lol

[@lynncolantuono668]

I think that that feather flapping up-and-down is him being annoyed not him being happy. It's like when a cat wags his tail, it is that they are annoyed.
