Lord, I can imagine! Drinking Central American water guarantees intestinal parasites, bacteria, and viruses. I can almost feel the disabling cramps just thinking about it.

Neither I think.

It’s just a single unit where the water comes in through the sink and then into the toilet. Or maybe it can be used as a toilet alone.

Still, just like everyone else I know, we have a single well and the water we use for cooking and drinking (which BTW, is very high quality - we had it tested) is the same water that runs to our bathroom and we flush with. And I do my laundry in it, too.

But that does NOT mean we drink our toilet water.

I'm sure to them a holding cell would look like a *cage* since it's not the Hilton.

Besides where were they during obama's presidency when he had them using these?????

In Spanish the word for toilet bowl is taza, which also means cup, so maybe someone is confused about drinking water out of a cup.

What are the dimensions of these cages they’re “packed” into?

When it was first opened. DeSantis, Noem, and IIRC Trump were there. They did a walk through.

From link: The flood of unaccompanied children...

Evolution at work!


 
 
 
Brown-headed cowbirds are brood parasites;
 
.
.
.
 

 Following the constantly roaming herds, cowbirds couldn’t expend the time for nesting, but rather laid their eggs in host nests as they moved along, leaving host parents to raise their eggs to adulthood. As people began to disperse across North America, clearing forests and expanding domesticated livestock herds and agricultural production, the cowbird range expanded also. Nest parasitism enabled brown-headed cowbirds to quickly establish new populations and expand their distribution across the country.

Impacts

Brown-headed cowbirds parasitize the nests of more than 220 bird species in their range. Each cowbird can lay up to 30 eggs per season and usually lay 1 or 2 (or occasionally more) eggs in each host nest. When parasitizing nests, they often remove the egg(s) of the host bird. Brown-headed cowbird chicks usually hatch sooner than the host chicks, are larger, and develop faster. Their larger size and persistent behavior gains them more care from the host parents. Nest parasitism lowers the reproductive success of host birds and has led to population declines in several bird species. In California, the riparian songbirds least Bell’s vireo (Vireo bellii pusillus) and willow flycatcher (Empidonax traillii) are listed as endangered due to loss of riparian habitat and nest parasitism by brown-headed cowbirds.

Actions Taken if Found

If you observe this species in California, please report your sighting to the CDFW Invasive Species Program, by email to Invasives@wildlife.ca.gov, or by calling (866) 440-9530.
