......and grew up to take revenge on it's siblings for being mean and it's parent for tossing it out of the nest.

[@simplycurlyde]

Poor baby. It seems like if it's not the 1st 3, it's chances of being killed by parents are likely.😞😢

[@exidy-yt]

Storks are absolutely the worst parents. We all know that if there isn't enough food or the youngest chick is too small to push past it's siblings to get the food that is delivered, it will die. But stork parents don't just benignly neglect the smallest when food is scarce, they cold-bloodedly decide that one will die, and not even always the smallest. I've seen storklets yeeted from the nest for simply asking for food by tapping Mom's bill. And they don't JUST chuck them from the nest, they peck them, haul them up in their beak by the neck and strangle them, crush their bellies etc before FINALLY tossing them out of the nest. That's beyond nature's hard-but-fair rules, that's outright cruel to your own young.

[@Ghostlyslime]

I know you're serious when talking about what has occurred in the video but I can't help but chuckle that between all the seriousness you say: "Yeeted", it's so funny

@@Ghostlyslime Heheh no worries. I think I used it deliberately to evoke an image of how fast and brutally they can grab and toss a young storklet out of the nest, and didn't want to repeat the same words doing so.

Nature is cruel, because the chick is the weakest, and the stronger ones must be fed as a guarantee for the survival of the species.

[@Oxzilion]

That chick wasn’t too much smaller than the next smallest, so I can assume all 4 hatched different days. It doesn’t look sick, or weak. I wonder if food became an issue. I just watched a stork nest with 6 chicks, which is more than I’ve ever seen in a stork nest, and the mother ate the smallest one, but it was MUCH smaller. I always wonder, but I guess nature will be nature.

[@chlopca]

I think she maybe did it because the little one was agressive...

[@Oxzilion]

@@chlopca a lot of nests if you watch the bigger ones are much more aggressive and end up killing the smaller ones. I’m just overly curious about something I’ll never fully understand.

Probably a combination of food for the rest and it being the smallest

[@cuchulainn3474]

I agree with _'p chlop'_ in that the chick was super aggressive. This is the second video I've seen of chicks being evicted because they're aggressive. Watch it? It pecks at the others. In the other video it was constantly attacking the others and the mother put it outside to cool off then it came back and repeated what it was doing and got kicked out.

[@dallbauossenn6325]

Someone should just go and "steal" the smallest stork at a certain time of their nest growing. Raise it in captivity togehter with other small taken stork chicks til they grow old enough to be released into the wild. But hey, i don't know.

[@rebeccacaraska4112]

Then they would just kill the next smallest one.

[@therealbahamut]

Right? She didn't just throw him out; she came back up with blood on her beak at 10:40. She could've just dropped him and said "Nothin' personal, kid." But no. She went down there to finish the job. I guess storks don't like counting to four.

[@thathungrypanda4386]

​@therealbahamut The baby was attacking the brood and the mother gave multiple punishments. She finished him off so predators would be enticed to get the others

​@@thathungrypanda4386 Funny you say that as this one was the second video of its kind I've seen and both videos had one thing in common....The tossed baby before hand kept pecking at their siblings and seems that might be the main reason they get tossed. To protect the others when one baby is aggressive for no real reason

[@Tevi_L7151]

@@therealbahamut oh god, maybe she rushed down to kill the chick because that would have been more merciful than if it had died below in agony from broken bones and internal organs for a long time. Animals have no idea that someone can pick up a chick to care, because only we, humanity, do it. By the way, somewhere there was a broadcast channel from a nest in Ukraine, where the storks managed to feed all 5 chicks approximately equally. Unfortunately, the broadcast was stopped due to the recommendations of the security service to turn off online cameras in Ukraine, but the last recording clearly shows all 5 healthy chicks same size, the channel now posts regular videos . From this we can conclude that in other more urbanized countries of Europe, storks simply do not have to found enough food to feed all the chicks

[@dynamicdave2647]

So disturbing! The mom is just staring for like a minute at the chick she tortured… and its almost as if the chick is trying to play dead so mother will leave it alone

[@shornsheep3118]

I guess that insistent feeders exhaust the mother once the babies are eating over a certain amount. That probably triggers this behavior. You could test it by having easy food within reach, or feeding some of the chicks on the sly, and seeing if the weakling still gets dumped from the nest. Easier to pitch the smallest over the side.

It seems these are not very smart birds, instinctive yes, but not smart. They know what they're doing when thinning the family, but they'll go at it for awhile torturing the chosen one, (as someone else noted) then suddenly stop as if they forgot what they were doing. Then they restart the process and just seem to drag it out. Sometimes the older ones get involved and they do that sort of ritual where they rear their heads back clapping the beak. I guess the whole family participates in a way at times. And then the ones that get eaten if they're small enough....tough species to be born into!

Lieber eier kaputt machen

[@supiferous9739]

Okay I'm gonna lay this out. I am a birdwatcher, and though I don't have a degree backing up what I say, this is actually a common practice for larger bird species that nest. The reason I've assumed is because larger birds are often high ranking predators on the food chain, so they need to have a certain level of maturity and respect for the world they live in. As you will often see in these videos, I beleive the mother is noticing that the child it plans on throwing out of the nest has a behavioral issue. They often peck, are annoying, immature or unkind. Even to the point of fighting back against their own parent. As some have mentioned, I don't think they are "torturing" the child. They are trying to prod it to judge it's reaction. And often they find a hostile and aggressive response from the child, which leads them to believe that perhaps the baby stork does not have the cunning and respect it takes to be a large predator. So instead, they kill them so that one day they don't make these mistakes as an adult.

[@gals6353]

I am not an ornithologist. Perhaps my assumptions are immature and naive. I think that the chick thus makes it clear that he is strong, he can stand up for himself no worse than older brothers and sisters. But the parent decided otherwise ...

[@Nature-lm7ul]

I agree with Gals regarding this episode . I am no Opthalmologist either, but this poor chick was clearly targeted for merely being the last born of this gaggle.

[@Alchemerrific]

The only time you will see aggressive behavior in a storklet is if the parent tries removing it. It pecks and bites it's siblings to provoke them into moving around, making it more difficult for the mother to grab it. Storks are a non-competitive species, which means they don't engage in siblicide. When food becomes scarce, the mother has the responsibility of removing the smallest/weakest of the brood to conserve resources. At this point her survival instincts will begin conflicting with her nuturing duties, which is why it's not a quick process, until the storklet is finally removed.
