In animal news, baby birds help inmates regain tenderness. In a project at a Cape Town, South
Africa detention center, young chicks are hand fed up to every two hours. Program participants
have been trained to mother the fledglings until the birds reach maturity. The caregivers
also pledge not to smoke or engage in anti-social behavior. Mr. Lesley Jacobs, who takes care

Our heartfelt salute, all who are involved in this fantastic endeavor. May our beautiful
feathered co-inhabitants thrive in happiness and safety, enriching our world with exquisite
songs and graceful flights�
