I read somewhere that if you own Ferrets and these have babies, you'll be prompted (dragged by one of the parents by your finger) towards them and when that happens you should do touch them because if you don't they may reject them

From what I heard, it’s what ferrets do. The dominant ferret in the group must approve of any offspring.

I could be wrong, of course.

When a wild animal introduces you to its babies, it’s basically saying ‘I trust you with my entire bloodline.’ That’s the Ellie Badge of the animal kingdom

Cat: alright now take care of them for an hour mom needs some alone time byeeeeeee!

Yep, cats do that. They understand the concept of babysitting, so sometimes they’ll bring their kittens to their owners or other cats to take care of so mama gets a break, and if a human mother brings her baby to her cat, cat will assume it’s on babysitting duty and watch over the infant.

Who’d have thought Canada geese were just respecting us this whole time instead of openly daring us to get too close to their chicks.

u/CasualSnivy 3h ago

No really daring, more like 'you won't touch my child, you value your lives too much, and you've seen what I do to those who fuck with me'.

Humans also do that.

Yeah, but I think it's normal to trust a human wouldn't immediately devour your infant, a mama deer might not think that
