Robert schibline, Alcatraz inmate #1355 was assigned cell B-110,after he got out of quarantine, and kept the total time of his Alcatraz stay.
$22,000 to $25,000 a year to keep a inmate locked up in a cell
Probably by a head count when mustered in the prison yard. Or a head count by warders going from cell to cell. Bearing in mind how dangerous some of the prisoners were in Alcatraz, I suspect the count was done cell to cell.
Prison may also be reffered to as a cell or a slammer.
Atlanta State Prison, Alcatraz, etc. Please see link below.
Yes, Robert Strobe, a former inmate at Alcatraz, kept birds during his time there. He raised and bred canaries in his cell, which provided him with companionship and a creative outlet amidst the harsh prison environment. His passion for birds was notable, as he took care of them and even used their songs to cope with the challenges of incarceration.
Two different issues here: if an inmate refuses to leave his cell he can be extracted from cell by a team of corrections officers who are trained for that purpose. If he refuses to eat it can be transferred to a psychiatric cell and put on suicide watch.
It is more of a tourist trap than anything. There are lots of tours, and they sell books about the history of the island. You can't go to many sections of the island or prison, but you can still go inside and take a picture with a cell door closed, etc.
i believe it was 'the bird man'. He saw a injured bird outside his cell and healed it. By the time he got out of prison he had over 300 birds.
Not sure exactly what you mean but the minimum square footage per inmate is 25 in a regular cell and 80 in a lockdown unit.

Alcatraz Island featured three primary levels of security: the first was its isolated location in San Francisco Bay, which made escape attempts difficult. The second level included the prison's formidable physical barriers, such as high walls, guard towers, and reinforced cell blocks. Lastly, the third level was the strict security measures implemented by the guards and staff, including constant surveillance and strict inmate regulations, which ensured tight control over the prisoner population.
