I guess it doesn’t matter that the pulmonary systems of mammals and birds are incompatible. Mammals breathe in and out, birds breath straight through. Oh well...details!

This is something new to me: “Mammals breathe in and out, birds breathe straight through.”

Straight through what? Birds have lungs; their lungs have a certain capacity. How can they NOT breathe in and out?

Please enlighten me.
