{{transcript||block=y}} | {{transcript|The sight of this wee one boinging around and pecking at its food all while skillfully balanced on its one leg is truly awww-inspiring. If you get too close, it might feel vulnerable and give you a warning poke with its beak. Or it might just turn to you for comfort.|block=y}} | ||

{{transcript||block=y}} | {{transcript|Due to a common phenomenon known as imprinting, this baby will recognize anything that it sees or hears within a given length of time after it hatches as its parent, and consequently follows it around. <br> However, the Downy Snagret has two specific conditions for imprinting. The first is that the target must be tall and blue, and the second is related to the sound of its cry. This means that it will never make a mistake with something as small as we are and will instead recognize it...or us...as food. <br> Since it is still a fledgling, the Downy Snagret does not go underground to feed. Instead, it stays on the surface where there is plenty of food. It looks harmless enough, but beware... Its parent may be hiding nearby until the baby is old enough to fend for itself.|block=y}} | ||
