Crazy! WILD Kestrel Nestlings Eat Sibling After Chameleon Choke! Viewer Discretion Advised

The young bird probably died from a combination of internal bleeding and asphyxiation. The mother has a lot of mouths to feed, nothing goes to waste in the natural world

I agree, the way they swallow its not meant for food to come back out! I’ve seen tails hanging out for a day before they digest entire thing, but it didn’t choke on it, the others had destroyed it’s mouth & other parts trying to get the lizard from it!

This is an amazing capture! We as humans like to anthropomorphize animal behavior, so we choose to ignore the reality that survival trumps all. Even for baby chicks. When we are disturbed by nature, it’s not that nature is disturbing, but rather that we’re out of touch with the reality of nature.

[@Bristlefurr]

I mostly agree, especially when it comes to family relations in nature. Everyone expects a "mother" animal to be the same as a mother human and deeply love her young - but they don't. They may bond with their family, but if a Kestrels baby mysteriously dies while she's out of the nest, she does not grieve the loss and instead sees an opportunity to feed her surviving babies. Also I'm sure her instincts told her there must be some reason the baby died. Chicks die very commonly, that's why the have so many. The siblings probably had no idea they were killing their nest mate, they just saw the tail and wanted to yoink the food from it. It all just got out of hand when they dogpiled him.

[@1faithchick7]

There are exact opposite videos to this one. Owls can be just as aggressive, yet there is a video of the oldest taking charge and feeding her younger siblings after her father died instead of taking the food her mother brought for herself. There was a lion who could not hunt at all and the other lions still kept bringing him back food. A falcon mother left the babies alone and the father learned to feed them, and they did not compete like this. Animals are also individuals. If you judged all of humanity based on the few cannibals and abusive familes... well this is just as silly.

[@johnlarson1249]

I have seen hours of kestrel nestling footage, and during those viewings, I saw a great deal of innate kestrel behavior, including mom killing a sibling (very weakened state...already trying to successfully raise five total nestlings) and then feeding it to its siblings. This was behavior not captured as routinely, but fascinating to see (from a scientific/naturalist) standpoint. Now, with that out of the way, I have NEVER seen footage like this. While I was captivated, I was also a number of other emotional points...disturbed...nervous...anxious...worried...etc. This footage is absolutely epic.

The mother will do it because the animal/prey is too big for the young ones to do it themselves. But over time they train to do it themselves so when they leave the nest they can hunt.
