Transfer

After a successful hunt we trade off the bird onto something smaller, the lure, or conduct a series of what are called transfers. Through repetition we take away the game they just caught by giving them something they can start eating right away. If done proper, the bird will not come to resent your stealing what they just caught, as they are still receiving a reward. As my friend Bill says, "They can only count to One!" They don't seem to notice the size difference between what they just had, and what you just offered . . . they only know they can eat it right away, no fur to deal with and such. If they finish eating what was offered, and then nothing else is around for them to see, they think they ate the whole thing. If what you offer is small enough, you can take them back up and hunt some more.
