-One of the most important aspects of corvid rehabilitation is the provision of a natural diet, environment and associations that ideally duplicate what corvids would be exposed to in the wild. This can be achieved by building and furnishing aviaries with this goal in mind. Since the majority of corvid rehabilitation deals with orphans, this approach is especially critical to releasing strong, robust, well-adjusted corvids that will go on to survive in the wild. However, theory and reality are as always slightly different. This is particularly true when corvids are being cared for longterm, which is quite often a necessity and will give them the best chance of survival in the wild. Sadly, in reality, many rescues will not give these birds the chance they deserve, because long-term rehabilitation is time consuming and financially demanding. Many of these birds will be either put to sleep straight away, or will even be prematurely released.+{{ :2016-08-06_1545.jpeg?200|}}One of the most important aspects of corvid rehabilitation is the provision of a natural diet, environment and associations that ideally duplicate what corvids would be exposed to in the wild.
