@utkarsh2746 It happened in the USA, where money and protecting hospitals come far higher on the list of priority than any patient can even hope to get. I Suspect the USA just might be the only country this would happen in.. Like Sidney saus.. even if they dod not have the needed specialists, a hospital would take a person in and THEN make sure he got the treatment needed, by sending for a specialust, or sending the patient to one. Noone would turn away a traumapatient like that.

@HShoshana In this case, they were refused twice.. so they were not sent to a facility with the proper facilities and personnel, they were simply sent away.. andjust got lucky on the third try. And sending away a person in labor.. ye because its alway better to give birth in a car, than in a house with clean water and plenty off towels. Stop making excuses for them.,, they are covering their asses ( because they can be sued for needing to sneeze, or blinking too fast), and actually treating patients is a liablity, not a preference.

@goldh2o543 They found it safer for the patient to be stabilized in an ambulance, being on the lookout, and driving around to find a "yes" hospital.-.. Because an ambulance is better eqipped than a traumaroom in an ER? There is stabilizing, and then there is treatment..They were afraid to get sued and chose to risk the patients life to cover themselves.. its that simple.

@goldh2o543 Ah, you are saying that those hosptals had less equipment and less qualified personell than the ambulance.. How are they even allowed to call themselves a hospital in that case? And as I understand it, the ambulance had to drive from place to place.. one would think they would know which of the local hospitals had a traumaroom of some sort, but I guess not:P

@sweetsierrablues5095 so what you are claiming, is that they only ever mate with siblings, causing inbreeding and all the problems that come with that? I took the liberty ( and 2 seconds on google) to check that claim, and while it can happen, it is very rare. Pidgeons, like all other animals, prefer to mate with someone that is not family.

Moose can be somewhat domesticated, but they can not be kept in pens. They need to freerange to thrive. They are very picky eaters, meaning they need to be able to find the food they want when they want it, to complete theur dietary needs. Kostroma Moose Farm in Russia has done extensive research on this for many decades ( since before ww2).

@matthewevans7703 Close but not quite. You enouraged me to look it up, so thank you for new knowledge:) Because insects and crustaceans are difficult to digest, Jehl suggests the main function of feather-eating is to delay the movement of food into the intestine until chemical digestion is complete. The gizzard plays no role in mechanical digestion. Each day the bird regurgitates the indigestible remains of its prey along with the feathers. In the morning, it is time to pluck some more feathers and start the process again.

@KitsuneNeko These birds do not use the mechanical method of gizzard to deal with undigestable food parts. the feathers make it easier to get those parts back out the same way they got in.
