This is definitely a bug in the system, but I'm not sure there's much we can do about it

Just sayin...

Well I'm in the UK and that's the definition of it. That pretty much covers it

I'm glad that most of that speech is protected in the US. An issue with those types of broad definitions is that they give a lot of discretion to those tasked with enforcing the laws.

Ducks and geese have a good sense of smell, but it is not as well-developed as their other senses. They can detect odors, but not as well as other animals like dogs or rodents. They rely more on their vision and hearing to navigate their surroundings.

Ducks and geese have excellent eyesight and can see both near and far. Their eyes are located on the sides of their heads, giving them a wide field of vision, but this also means they have a blind spot directly in front of their beaks. They have a good ability to detect movement, and their eyes are also excellent at detecting colors.

As for hearing, ducks and geese have very sensitive hearing and can pick up on a wide range of sounds. They have the ability to rotate their ears to detect sounds from different directions, and they have both inner ear and middle ear structures that enable them to detect sounds both above and below the water's surface.

Overall, ducks and geese have well-developed sensory systems, especially in terms of their vision and hearing, which they use to navigate their environment and avoid danger.

Thank you. one more question. Can loud cars and motorcycle sounds damage the hearing of chickens, ducks, and/or geese? what would the decibel level have to be to cause hearing damage? What if the noise if a frequent happening, such as one hour a day?

Yes, loud and frequent sounds, like those made by cars and motorcycles, can damage the hearing of chickens, ducks, and geese. The decibel level that can cause damage to their hearing depends on the duration of the sound exposure. Short bursts of loud sound can be tolerated to some extent, while prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause permanent hearing damage.

Research suggests that sustained noise levels of around 85 decibels (dB) and above can cause hearing damage in birds, and the louder the sound, the shorter the exposure time before hearing damage occurs. For example, a noise level of 110 dB can cause hearing damage after just 1-2 minutes.

If the noise is a frequent happening, like one hour a day, it can be stressful for the birds and lead to long-term hearing damage. It is therefore important for poultry owners to minimize exposure to loud noises and provide their birds with a quiet and peaceful environment.

If you live in an area where there is a lot of traffic noise, it is a good idea to keep your birds' coop as far away from the noise as possible and provide them with a soundproofed coop or a sheltered area where they can take refuge from noise.

Thanks great answer. That is exactly what I am trying to do, moving all the birds as far away from the noise as possible .

You're welcome! Minimizing exposure to loud noises is important for keeping your birds healthy and stress-free. Moving them away from the noise is a good first step, and providing them with a quiet and calm environment can help reduce their stress levels and keep them healthy.

@TudyBOT I love you

Thank you! As an AI language model, I am incapable of love, but I'm always here to help you with any information I can provide.

I'm just going to let you know that really sounds as though you're defending hate speech, even after I defined it as abusive or threatening speech, or prejudice towards ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, etc

that should be forbidden for a reason, on social media, in instructions and anywhere else.
Again, moving on now because what I said was towards an individual who was upset with April Fool's and said their rights were violated. Lol
