If you see a child left alone, we will automatically rush to your aid. We do the same with abandoned, orphaned animals.
Imagine a family of imperial eagles where the parents take care of the chicks and transport the freshly looted food to the nest in turn. There can be many things on the table, including the mouse hawk. However, experts have more than once found that the chicks of the imperial eagle include a foreign-looking chick.
Namely, the eagle often prey on the mouse hawk chick to feed its own chicks, but if that chick survives, it will not perish between the claws of the eagle and raise it as its own. The mouse buzzard chick hears his voice in the same way, asks for food, and if he doesn’t know from his own parents, he asks his surrogate parents. Thus, it is possible that the imperial eagle sometimes raises a mouse eagle.
