response: I know some birds, especially pet birds, will hoard non-food items.
original_response: Some birds also stingily collect foods
history: I like to watch TV shows about hoarders. It fascinates me how some people can't throw anything away. Yes, I guess you could consider some animals hoarders, as they accumulate food. Do you have any hoarding tendencies? I guess it is OK to hoard up a certain limit. Then it becomes more trouble than good. lol really? hoarding and caches are behaviors in many birds and rodents I know squirrels will build a big hoard of nuts before the winter, when it is harder to find them. Yes, in fact most animals that hoard do so with food. Do you know of any other animals that hoard? I think Raccoons also do it after they raid someone's trash can, lol. Yeah, like I said, mostly animals hoard food. What other animals can we think of that hoard? Well, I have seen rats carrying food around, so maybe they are hoarders, too. Do you know of any animals that hoard?
knowledge: However, some birds will also stingily collect other items, especially if the birds are pets.
