When a young raptor is displaced from its nest due to trapping, the most appropriate action is to place it back in the nest or nearby. This approach is grounded in the understanding of wildlife rehabilitation and the natural behaviors of birds of prey.
Returning the chick to its nest or a safe location nearby allows the parents to resume caring for the young bird. Parent raptors have an established routine and instinctively know how to feed and look after their chicks. By putting the juvenile back in a familiar environment, it increases the chances of survival, as the parents are more likely to return and continue their nurturing.
Engaging with wildlife authorities might also be important in some situations, especially if the trapping was illegal or harmful, but immediate action to reunite the chick with its parents is essential for its welfare. Taking it home or leaving it to fend for itself are not viable options, as they do not support the young raptor's chances for survival in the wild or neglect the responsibilities of wildlife conservation.
