For most people, cats and dogs are the standard when it comes to bringing a pet into
your family. These animals have been domesticated over the course of thousands of years and understand how to live in perfect harmony with people. Wild animals, on the other hand, have not. There are many reasons why wild animals make terrible pets; a few being their highly specific diets, their propensity for shredding furniture and, well, their wild nature. No matter how hard humans try, we can never truly replicate the experience of living in the natural world when we bring wild animals into our homes and this leads these animals to suffer both physically and mentally.

The Bloom family, however, has managed to successfully cohabitate with a wild magpie. Unlike other people who go out and purchase exotic pets, Penguin the magpie came to the Blooms as a result of a tragic turn of fate. Noah Bloom, who was nine at the time, came across the small, abandoned bird and brought her home. Noah’s father happened to be best friends with a veterinarian, so with proper instructions and a strict diet regiment, the Blooms came to be the primary caretakers of little Penguin. Mr. Bloom is a professional photographer and has beautifully documented Penguin’s life with his family.
