    I’m a falconer, this is true for the US. But you are able to have a bird as an apprentice. But ya, the quickest I’ve seen someone go from nothing to bird was like 10 months. In some countries like the UK you can just go buy a bird. I would not recommend it but it is legal.

      Oh that seems like a terrible idea for a lot of reasons, not least of which is that there’s no way people haven’t abandoned birds after realizing they were in way over their heads. Wtf, UK?
