If birds wore shoes, they would look like Rudi Hurzlmeier’s birds. Imagine the market. Billions of birds buying billions and billions of shoes.
Of course, if insects were as large as this one, we’d all be in trouble.
Bird shoes would also require bird socks, another huge market.
High heels might stage a comeback and bird anthropologists would, as human anthropologists have, investigate whether such shoes are a sign by women of submission to men. The human anthropologists who derived that theory were men.
Yes, we know: These Hurzlmeier cards, which we gleefully sell in our online store, anthropomorphize birds. We don’t care; they’re funny and make us chuckle.

Oh my goodness, these are so cute. Fun to match what kind of bird would wear what kind of shoe!
