2. Coming into the World: Who Are Your Parents? Baby whoopers need to know within hours of hatching how to identify their parents and their own species. Look at the picture below to see how chicks in captivity do this. Then roll your mouse over to see how chicks raised in the wild do it. Use your handout to answer these questions: How do you think each type of chick learns who its parents are and what species it belongs with?
