We have had an info request from a licensed Wildcare person who is
raising two Tawny Frogmouth chicks.

As very young birds they have fed on food she provides, incl live scarab
beetles, but she now feels that they need to learn to hunt for lizards,
mice, etc. before they can be released into the wild.

She seeks advice about how to help them to learn these skills which
presumably are normally learned from their parents.

Any suggestions please?

David
