Unfair Treatment of Lost Pets
If people find a lost dog or cat they usually make some kind of effort to find the rightful owner. When people find a lost bird they usually don’t think twice about just keeping it. Birds are just as much a part of the families they live with as a dog or cat. Live with a bird a while and you will see that they have personalities too. So don’t use “they don’t care like a dog†as an excuse.

I think the problem is that there really is no way of telling whether or not a bird is a pet or not. I guess if it’s friendly around people that would be an indicator. Also, they probably don’t want to go back to sitting in a cage all day. They’re happy with their new found freedom. If you lose a bird, don’t expect to find it. They can travel very far, very fast and might never come back.
