If my neighbor kept a coop, with several chickens obviously under their protection, all of them would be safer than that baby, though the right to keep property be less strong than parental rights, for human emotional reasons.

But if I killed and ate one of those chickens, I would not be in mortal peril from her flock.

I would not try that with crows. They retaliate, as humans do, against those who eat their species. This is not a matter of rights, but of prudence.
