Unlike most elevators, this one doesn't lift the bird; the bird climbs it. Once the loon is funneled toward the ramp, it instinctively feels solid ground under its feet. Because the ramp is wet and textured, the loon can actually do a "belly crawl" up the slope. This brings it out of the water and onto a safe, flat surface (like a padded crate). Downtime: 8 days total (mostly sensor recalibration for

• Downtime: 8 days total (mostly sensor recalibration for the leaning interface)
• Most common issue: “Phantom loon” – elevator would occasionally trigger the pause and call mid-floor without stopping, startling passengers
• Maintenance cost: ~$2,000/year higher than a conventional hydraulic elevator due to proprietary motion actuators
