Bird school

From Bep
Jump to navigation Jump to search

A bird school is a school for birds, by birds, where one trained bird teaches things to the other birds. It is a common Bep custom to domesticate and train birds for various useful tasks, such as moving items, alerting to fires, entertaining people, etc. However, having a human train birds is costly and ineffective, particularly because humans are not a bird, and so teach very inefficiently.

One major constraint of bird schools is that birds are pretty clever, meaning they can not only teach each other the suggested curriculum, but also other things and ideas of their own. A notable case of bird schools misfiring for humans is the proliferation of avian lockpicking.
