and their close relative, the raven, can speak. There have been reports of them being taught "i love you" and "fuck you" and the positive and negative correlations of both. As you probably guessed, the unliked were insulted.
I want a wild crow that says "fuck you". I mean having a parrot that says that is one thing, but having one sweep down upon an enemy, only to land close by and scream "FUCK YOU" would be more priceless than a MasterCard commercial.
Fun fact! A recent experiment on ravens was *broken* by a single raven who figured out a way to get around the way the treat despensers worked, and then taught all the others
One thing I've found with a couple different birds in my area (such as cardinals and crows) is that if you repeat their call to them and there is no other bird of the same species around you can actually have a "conversation" with the birds. And especially with cardinals, they will change their song and see if you can repeat it. Conversations with cardinals will last for quite a while because the bird often does not give up, so unless you stop your half of the conversation, you may just be stuck for like a half an hour talking to a bird.
I used to do that when I was a child at my great grandmothers house. She had lots of bird feeders and houses on her property. You could see blue Jay's, Cardinals, and sometimes even Orioles on any given day.
hey I have a crow story. A crow had a nest right outside my apartment tree. Few branches use to pop inside my window fence. I used a big clothespin to a thin bread (traditional name: khakra) every day on the fence for the crow to feed himself, his nest and his mate. One day after a month I clipped it again and he didn't come. I did it for couple of days but he didn't show up and I stopped. One day I woke up and there was strange smell and I opened my window. I saw a dead rat as a gift from him was under my fence on the neighbor's roof. I looked up and the crow was waiting there looking at me to take it and eat it. It was priceless return. I was very happy but unfortunately I am a vegetarian. hahaha. anyways. I just subscribed your channel and loved the way you make the knowledge and the logic so interesting! And your sketches!!! wow. sometimes I get confused to look at the sketches or you.. :P
+IKO terrified haha.. no man. I don't own that crow. I mean I didn't buy a pet or never had intentions of making him my pet before. I saw him across my window making his nest and I fed him. I mean, even I want that crow to be with me. It was nice to see him waiting when I was late to feed him.. haha he would just stare at me without even shouting and after a point he trusted me enough that I could feed him through my hands but we weren't so close that he would allow me to touch him. Anyways, I haven't seen them since more than 4 years now. but I hope to see them again. :)
there is a girl who gets gifts from crows too because she feeds them daily, she is 8 and her name is Gabi Mann. you can see her story on youtube. its really facinating!
4 year old twat, considering the amount of idiots that believe the earth is flat, gravity doesn't exist, that the mysterious "they" are controlling everyone in a big conspiracy that they discovered with "evidence", your assertion that 90% of the internet is stupider than a crow is a gross understatement with 98% of the internet is stupider than a sea turtle (whom cannot learn).
In some cultures, ravens are seen as a symbol of wisdom, which seems to make sense from their intelligence. Interesting how Australian ravens sound much more different, maybe they have an accent XD
Amonthered you mean the deaths of whole flocks in Kentucky and Tennessee. I was thinking it might have been possibly a large spill of fertilizer or weed killing pellets that the birds could have mistaken as rocks that they would swallow for digestion. Thus they would have been killed by being poisoned.
krrrruptidsoless true its just hard to believe that could have gone unnoticed for so long for crow to be able to pick it up. no one is that slack i dont think.
Then again, the introduction of our precious apex predators (cats) has had a ridiculous impact on avian populations. It's really not alright, honestly.
Love crows. I once rescued an injured crow stuck in the middle of a four lane street (traffic was slow). Immediately the group he belonged to and who was in a tree in a park opposite the street started to crow very aggressively at me. It was a very threatening type of sound. Anyway, I crossed the street with the crow and deposited it under the tree where all the other crows were perched and very intently observing my actions. The crow itself didn't pick at me or anything. So after I dropped it in the grass and backed up a few meters, the crowing died down almost immediately. It was a very interesting experience for me, really kinda human in a certain way. Anyways, crows are super smart plus they seem to care for other members of their groups. Fun experience.
Yes. What made you ask that question? Did you even read it yourself? No info whatsoever on what the injured crow did later. " It was a very threatening type of sound. " "The crow itself didn't pick at me or anything. So after I dropped it in the grass and backed up a few meters, the crowing died down almost immediately. It was a very interesting experience for me, really kinda human in a certain way."
Once while I was hiking with a dog in the woods, I came across a crow fledgling who had fallen from a very high nest and was trying to get back up, but hadn't quite gotten the hang of flying that high yet. The mama crow was freaking out about our presence, because the dog was straining on the leash and the young crow was completely exposed, so I made a point of holding the dog back and nodding at the crow, then clearing out of the area. Since then, the whole family that lives in that neck of the woods, so to speak, has been quite friendly to me whenever I hike there or am in the neighborhood.
There is a common raven or two on the cypress trees in my neighbor's backyard a lot of the time. They like to try to sit on the very top of the trees, especially when it is windy. My brother and I have tried to imitate their deep croaking sound and they will actually talk back to us a lot of the time. We think it might be a territorial thing because if we make a deeper croak than they do, they often fly off. Either that or we are saying something really rude in raven.
I once helped a dying crow. She had something stuck in its beak and was just been there in the snow having cold. There was no possibility to bring her to the pet doc so I decided to help her myself. Then she wanted to stay with me for a night. I sure allowed her to stay for as long as she wants to but next morning she gave me a sign that I should open the window and then she flew of. I called her Raven (I know its not rly creative but she seemed to like it) she reacted to her name as soon as she could move. She chilled at my shoulder and watched me playing video games and stuff, gave me soft love bites. First she wanted human food but then she didnt want the chicken nugget from my plate. Then I gave her a fresh killed mouse, believe me it was a brutal show, she loved it, me too. I somehow had the feeling this bird understands me very well, as I would have make a new friend. What an amazing creature, I'm glad for the experience I could make. I hope she remembers me and that the is ok and healthy outside.
I don't think I would mind having the world ruled by corvids too much, honestly. I mean sure the world would probably fall into chaos, what with being owned by practical 7 year olds, but that would just be awesome
theravendiaries - not to bore you but after moving to washington i returned home to california to get my "final load" to drive to my new house in WA. not only did the crows i'd feed for 5 years greet me but about 50 others, too. the astonished neighbors, etc., came out to film this. now, you might think, "over time you were feeding many crows," but in fact I fed about 4 whose distinct markings i came to know. the others must have been 'pals' who came to help greet a returning friend. and yes, a crow is smarter - in fact than a Berkeley FIFTEEN year old - with better taste in music, i'd guess, as well.
my father accidentaly made friends with a murder of about 100+ crows they would chill in the trees behind and around our house and would crow so freaking loud at like 4am it took a while for them to get bored and go away untill that happened though our house looked like something from a horror movie
Well done but I'd really like to see less of the death and gloom, and more about the positive aspects of these magnificent birds. The fact is that both ravens and crows can easily be befriended, and are easy to watch and get to know. They will get to know friendly individuals as they very are curious about people who are genuinely curious about them. Especially ravens, who find a partner, homestead a territory, and stay there working the land together for life!
I saw a video of a guy that helped a crow and it started following him around. So look for a crow in distress and save it. You now have a crow friend! I however, managed to be the ire of a crow. It seemed to nest at this tree next to a bank and I would often cut through the bank's parking lot to get to the store from school. It repeatedly decided it hated my hair and startled me by attacking my head and flying off. I don't know if this happened with other people, but it happened to me even if there were friends with me. So I guess it just really hated my stupid haircut or something.
Depending on the time of year perhaps it was nesting in the area? In the park I also have one pair of crows that yell at me every season. I'm not sure why but I suspect it was because I came very close to a couple of their young that had landed on the ground one year...
+Muhd Zulfadzli Cockatiels are very easy to get as pets. Feed crows unsalted peanuts. Peanuts have things that are good for crows in them and since they are roasted, they are easier to digest and it takes away the chance of them being toxic. It also means you can eat the peanuts too.

My mother always drops some leftover food for a small group of crows during her lunch break, and it's always around the same time. So naturally, after a few days or so, they were there waiting for her. It started out with one crow, but now it's usually three or so. So the idea of them communicating and exchanging information might not be too farfetched? Dunno, I'm probably wrong, but I've always considered them to be selfish when it comes to food.
BEARS....BEARS!!!!! (Ok... Come on now. I think you're just doing this on purpose now....I need this video! The people need to know the awesomeness that are.. Bears)
4:35 "Crow Internet" ... Crows are already trolls. They've be known to troll chickens, by mimicking human voices, calling the chickens for feeding time
Luna Knight Habitat loss? That only applies to animals to stupid to adapt to human habitat. Humans CREATE crow habitat. They love the cities, so much great food for them.
The cities and towns we make are good for crows. It has food and safety, not to mention plenty of nesting spots. The only threats are fellow birds and maybe some people breaking their nests. If they _do_ destroy their nest though, they'll regret it when they make a crow an enemy :>
3:59 That's a Barred Owl, not a Great Horned; the latter are more brown and have cat-like ears. Barred owls are super common in upper-midwest, USA. They're diurnal, but I see them and hear them all the time. I think they just don't sleep.
Veezenn no. Their young will stay as long as 5 years with their parents. Sometimes they stay permanent. But crow families are very tight knit. Stay together mostly. But no the young do not take care of the parents. The parents continually look after their offspring. I’ve been interacting and studying these beautiful birds for awhile now.
I was at the beach throwing a few seeds at a bunch of birds to eat, at a point I was throwing one seed at a time, most birds (10-12) weighted in the ground for more food to fall, but this one crow, saw me throw food, jumped in the air and caught it while still airbourne before the other birds, it continued to do this repeatedly, it had figured that if it waited for the food to hit the ground, it was too much competition. All the other birds despite seeing what the crow was doing and getting away with, time after time, never figured out they could see the food thrown, and also catch it mid air. Crows are so smart.
I LOVE them . They are so very interesting. I have a particular whistle I give when I call them and feed them scraps/ leftovers . Occasionally they will leave me "prizes" in return , small pebbles , a rusted washer , an acorn, piece of green glass . Etc . If I go to the lake around the corner , they will follow me and fly over the water several times calling. They have run off all predators , a fox and several snakes , anytime a strange vehicle or person comes near my house I know it because they start giving the predator call . 😊 they are endlessly entertaining!!
I know this sounds stupid, if you've owned a bunny then you'd know. Could you perhaps try doing a video on rabbits? Not on how fluffy they are, not on how amazing they are at being beginner's pets(they're not), or how cute they are. I've searched everywhere and I cannot find a single video about rabbits other than them as pets or at bunny shows. Please! For years people thought they were brainless fluffballs, but nope! Research proves that they are about as smart as a large dog! We just never gave them a chance...Rabbits have to be the most underrated pets, even animals might I say, in the world! thanks!
The facts that ravens can pull pranks on people and show what, quite obviously, is humour in their actions is their largest sign of intelligence to me. My grandpa had a raven which stole people's soap. When they washing clothes it silently snuck up on them and stole it, only to see them fumble after it and corvid-laugh. I'm a bit sad I never got to meet him. He sounds hilarious.
Best display of chorvid intelligence I've seen: a crow was seen dropping a piece of bread into some water, waiting for a fish to c eat it, then catching the fish!
We had a pet raven, Black Bart, for years and he was very smart and had my brother and me spent more time with him, he would've had picked up more words. He had a large pen but sometimes we'd let him out to stroll around the house. He did not mix with crows.
Crows are scary man. The other day I saw two crows trading, one gave a stick to the other one and the other one gave it a plastic cup. They know. They are planning, they will overthrow us.
We sometimes get crows in our garden. In the winter my Grandad leaves out bread but it often gets frozen, also every morning he fills up the birdbath with warm water after taking out any ice. It's really cool to see the crows defrost their bread in the bath before eating it.
I've heard that crows are superstitious about the color black, and think that very young crows are possessed by evil spirits or something until their black color comes in, which translates into how they treat their young. I don't remember any of the details about this since it was a long time ago, but you can understand how the possibility of a unique mythology invented by sentient dinosaurs is something that's, well, awesome.
Crows don't dare go near where I am cause in the philippines, some kids run around with pellet guns shooting things, also many people sadly eat such smart birds
I see thousands every night flying over the city of Rochester NY right at dusk, all in the same direction. It takes like an hour for them all to pass over.
Can anyone explain how the American school system work?! Where I live in South-Eastern Europe and kids start first grade when they're 7, How could a fifth grader be five...that woul mean he started school at 2???
Here's the thing. You said a "jackdaw is a crow." Is it in the same family? Yes. No one's arguing that. As someone who is a scientist who studies crows, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls jackdaws crows. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing. If you're saying "crow family" you're referring to the taxonomic grouping of Corvidae, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to ravens. So your reasoning for calling a jackdaw a crow is because random people "call the black ones crows?" Let's get grackles and blackbirds in there, then, too. Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. A jackdaw is a jackdaw and a member of the crow family. But that's not what you said. You said a jackdaw is a crow, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all members of the crow family crows, which means you'd call blue jays, ravens, and other birds crows, too. Which you said you don't. It's okay to just admit you're wrong, you know?
Hey it just so happens that I am a 5th grader, and can recite up to 94 on the periodic table, and I literally started 3 weeks ago! If you are also a 5th grader, and have gotten 2 scholarships, and watched this video, then you will qlso get VERY annoyed.
They can also speak and understand commands. They struggle with pronouncing words since their vocal cords aren't as versitile as a parrots but know the words and can be observed actually mumbling to themselves. They also understand commands and although they rarely follow them(just because they are stubborn) they can be taught a few tricks. They also recognise faces and certain words
Crows arent so intelligent they could take over like that, you know that, but they are pretty birds with beautiful sounds I love to hear, and I love how they can figure out how to solve problems like that! It is pretty fascinating knowing what these birds are capable of!
I love these birds. If you look into a galah's eye you don't see much going on. But you look into a crow's or raven's eye and you see an cool and calculating intellect looking back into yours.
Everyday in school at break, after the bell rings, I can always see a crow arriving at one of the school buildings. After the crow seeing everyone get out, it flies back somewhere a bit further away. After the bell rings again and we get inside, 3 crows arrive and wait till everyone is inside to peck on the food on the ground. They learned that the bell ringing means students getting in & out the yard.
Ravens also have the ability to mimic human speech like parrots. There are videos of people having conversations with crows. That seven year old intellect and speech ability makes them very versatile.
![Tee Grizzley - Detroit (Feat. 42 Dugg) [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/aeKfTtt0x14/mqdefault.jpg)
Crows can also recognize human faces and hold grudges against ones they don't like
and their close relative, the raven, can speak. There have been reports of them being taught "i love you" and "fuck you" and the positive and negative correlations of both. As you probably guessed, the unliked were insulted.

So the idea of them communicating and exchanging information might not be too farfetched? Dunno, I'm probably wrong, but I've always considered them to be selfish when it comes to food.
In reality crows are very social animals
Ravens however have their own stashes and some get robbed by other ravens, so they trick them, and they trick them back and bla bla bla
Proinsias Cassidy maybe not selfish more opportunistic. They do call their fam over but they do cash there food for later.
"Murder of A Hundred Thousand Crows"
That sounds like a movie or book title
Me, a writer: _Write that down, WRITE IT DOWN_
@@babiiesketches5257 damn bro, but i didn't know who asked.
The bird in the thumbnail is actually a raven. You can tell because of the throat hackles and feathers extending down the beak.
I've seen crow in my village puting a nut on road and when car goes over it cracks open and then crow come and eat it.
Their capacity for fun and silliness (which does extend to harassing other creatures) clearly makes them winners at life 😊
This is why Crows are one of my favorite animals!
I used to eat lunch outside in school, and there were crows that would offer us shiny things for food. It was adorable
BEARS....BEARS!!!!! (Ok... Come on now. I think you're just doing this on purpose now....I need this video! The people need to know the awesomeness that are.. Bears)
Bearorgans any bear in particular?
Bearorgans I hope she makes it BEARable to watch...I'll go now, thank you.
midnight80090 I can BEARly contain my excitement for the bear puns
You might as well take a break for a month. I don't think bears have anything to do with Game of Thrones.
I hope they bring aBEARness to the species
CROW REVOLUTION!
4:35 "Crow Internet" ... Crows are already trolls. They've be known to troll chickens, by mimicking human voices, calling the chickens for feeding time
Hey... I got a flock of crows that live out back with my chickens and we love em. They scare away the hawks, and so earn their keep.
Why would the crows be plotting our downfall? We are highly beneficial to crows.
How are we beneficial though? Certainly not when it comes to habitat loss and eco management.
Luna Knight Habitat loss? That only applies to animals to stupid to adapt to human habitat. Humans CREATE crow habitat. They love the cities, so much great food for them.
The cities and towns we make are good for crows. It has food and safety, not to mention plenty of nesting spots. The only threats are fellow birds and maybe some people breaking their nests. If they _do_ destroy their nest though, they'll regret it when they make a crow an enemy :>
Indeed. The crows are too clever to be on the wrong side of.
I'm glad you noticed.
3:59 That's a Barred Owl, not a Great Horned; the latter are more brown and have cat-like ears. Barred owls are super common in upper-midwest, USA. They're diurnal, but I see them and hear them all the time. I think they just don't sleep.

Is a Crow Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?
Well, definitely in the U.S.!
Idiot-in-Chief ahhh. so very original.
And smarter than 75% of the U.S. population.
Yo Mama Do you mean the african part of America?
Nope in China.
Eh not for me. Although I am American and in fifth grade.
Don't you mean KAWS and effect.
I haven't even watched the video yet and I already know the answer is yes
who draws the amazing art work in the background?
I guess she does (It's signed)
thx for spoiler naruto is ruined now
+Nice Meme i hate naruto :D
tobi is obito? fuck u
Yukari - Sama fuck you too
That’s a raven in the thumbnail.
I prefer Ravens to Crows but they're both awesome!
TheRonster9319 also its like they have no fear(they do, but watch one taunting/fighting a large seagull)
Manatees! Please please please PLEASE do manatees!!!!
MuseofLullabys DO MANATEES!
+MuseofLullabys Don't forget Dugongs.
I've heard that the crows take care of their parents. Is it true? O.O
Veezenn well kinda. They have close family bonds.
Yes,and this might be the source of filial piety.
interesting
Veezenn no. Their young will stay as long as 5 years with their parents. Sometimes they stay permanent. But crow families are very tight knit. Stay together mostly. But no the young do not take care of the parents. The parents continually look after their offspring. I’ve been interacting and studying these beautiful birds for awhile now.
Crows do some wierd shit I keep seeing one just hanging out with a group of seagulls I'm just like "What? Are you the token black guy or something?!"
Man, Corvids are just the coolest!
no
The Mantis Shrimp! These things are insane
Crows are smart and metall. If I'd to name my favorite bird of all times - crow is the answer.
4:24 sounds like my lunchroom
I love this chick
Their *KAA* *KAA* .. that's why I love you..
Next time they call you "Bird Brain", well, you can feel somewhat flattered.
I wanted to see a puzzle solving contest.
When evolution will happen once again; humanoid crows.
Charles Z P everybody knows the tale "the stork brings the baby". I think there is something going on xD
Charles Z P Tengu?
James Graves Mecha tengu
Blood Raven 788 GO!
Charles Z P evolution doesnt work like that
Crows and Bonobos seem to be animal with high conscious
I was at the beach throwing a few seeds at a bunch of birds to eat, at a point I was throwing one seed at a time, most birds (10-12) weighted in the ground for more food to fall, but this one crow, saw me throw food, jumped in the air and caught it while still airbourne before the other birds, it continued to do this repeatedly, it had figured that if it waited for the food to hit the ground, it was too much competition. All the other birds despite seeing what the crow was doing and getting away with, time after time, never figured out they could see the food thrown, and also catch it mid air. Crows are so smart.
I LOVE them . They are so very interesting.
I have a particular whistle I give when I call them and feed them scraps/ leftovers . Occasionally they will leave me "prizes" in return , small pebbles , a rusted washer , an acorn, piece of green glass . Etc .
If I go to the lake around the corner , they will follow me and fly over the water several times calling.
They have run off all predators , a fox and several snakes , anytime a strange vehicle or person comes near my house I know it because they start giving the predator call . 😊 they are endlessly entertaining!!
Ravens and crow are awesome, also I love the drawing!
This is why I love my last name
That is an AWESOME name!
I saw a cooper hawk flying for its life with a crow in its talons. A huge flock was chasing after it lol. I hope they got their friend back.
That raven is probably smarter than a flat earth convention
crows don't make noise like HA.. HA.. HA.. they make noise like kraah.. kraah.. kraah.
Do one on snow leopards!
Omg yesss :D

Sneps are the best! x3
RoseOfTheNight4444 Sneps? LOL 😄
Watching this in 50% is equal parts delightful and hilarious.
I asked, you delivered, and my friday is complete. You rock.
FOR THEY ARE GOOD COMPANIONS
Absolutely love crows - my favourite creature of any kind.
Thanks for the super video!
I'm pretty sure a crow won't be smart enough to be able to steal my Pokemon games and play them, so I'm positive that I'm safe...
I know this sounds stupid, if you've owned a bunny then you'd know.
Could you perhaps try doing a video on rabbits? Not on how fluffy they are, not on how amazing they are at being beginner's pets(they're not), or how cute they are. I've searched everywhere and I cannot find a single video about rabbits other than them as pets or at bunny shows.
Please! For years people thought they were brainless fluffballs, but nope! Research proves that they are about as smart as a large dog! We just never gave them a chance...Rabbits have to be the most underrated pets, even animals might I say, in the world!
thanks!
I'm actually a crow.
than eat from dustbins :-p
Yo same
The facts that ravens can pull pranks on people and show what, quite obviously, is humour in their actions is their largest sign of intelligence to me.
My grandpa had a raven which stole people's soap. When they washing clothes it silently snuck up on them and stole it, only to see them fumble after it and corvid-laugh.
I'm a bit sad I never got to meet him. He sounds hilarious.
Best display of chorvid intelligence I've seen: a crow was seen dropping a piece of bread into some water, waiting for a fish to c eat it, then catching the fish!
CROOOOW REVOLUTION!
no
Herobryan Gaming I did a poops!
Evolution
Crows are cool :D
We had a pet raven, Black Bart, for years and he was very smart and had my brother and me spent more time with him, he would've had picked up more words. He had a large pen but sometimes we'd let him out to stroll around the house. He did not mix with crows.
Crows are scary man.
The other day I saw two crows trading, one gave a stick to the other one and the other one gave it a plastic cup.
They know. They are planning, they will overthrow us.
Umm a fifth grader is in the age 10-11, not 7.
She's quoting the show title
***** did 9:11
Viktor6665 and youre that dumb?
+Viktor6665 so if a 7 year old is in 5th grade he is super smart then?
... and we all think "your" an idiot.
The host reminds me of a Vulcan.
I think she's half Romulan.
>Crow
>Raven in tumbnail
Me seeing a raven in the past: oh...cool.
Me seeing a raven now: (walks up to random person and points at the raven) WORSHIP!!!!
my seven-year old daughter, Elena, liked this video and wants you to do a video on cats.
Celesta Espinosa I like cats.
Bears for the win
Crows have a surprising human trait: empathy. A crow raised a stray kitten by feeding it worms for months. The two animals became inseparable friends.
I have a crow friend that flies right onto my table at Starbucks. He knows I have peanuts.
Bears? Please? People want bears!
Honey badger!!!
L FUCK YEAH! MY FAVORITE ANIMAL!
We sometimes get crows in our garden. In the winter my Grandad leaves out bread but it often gets frozen, also every morning he fills up the birdbath with warm water after taking out any ice. It's really cool to see the crows defrost their bread in the bath before eating it.
I've heard that crows are superstitious about the color black, and think that very young crows are possessed by evil spirits or something until their black color comes in, which translates into how they treat their young. I don't remember any of the details about this since it was a long time ago, but you can understand how the possibility of a unique mythology invented by sentient dinosaurs is something that's, well, awesome.
You're very elvish....a beauty
My pet crow doesn't speak much; nor the owl for that matter.
Pet crow? dude you must be crazy
Who?
Im making frinds with the crows in my neighborhood.
The Rage Squid Well I'm proud of you!
Crows don't dare go near where I am cause in the philippines, some kids run around with pellet guns shooting things, also many people sadly eat such smart birds
I see thousands every night flying over the city of Rochester NY right at dusk, all in the same direction. It takes like an hour for them all to pass over.
3:08 Planet of the Corvidaes! I can live with that. I have an affinity for them like some people feel for a cat or a dog or, a small human (child).
Can anyone explain how the American school system work?! Where I live in South-Eastern Europe and kids start first grade when they're 7, How could a fifth grader be five...that woul mean he started school at 2???
First grade starts at five years old here in the U.S.
We Americans like to indoctrinate our children young so the programming sticks in there heads for life
Here's the thing. You said a "jackdaw is a crow."
Is it in the same family? Yes. No one's arguing that.
As someone who is a scientist who studies crows, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls jackdaws crows. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing.
If you're saying "crow family" you're referring to the taxonomic grouping of Corvidae, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to ravens.
So your reasoning for calling a jackdaw a crow is because random people "call the black ones crows?" Let's get grackles and blackbirds in there, then, too.
Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. A jackdaw is a jackdaw and a member of the crow family. But that's not what you said. You said a jackdaw is a crow, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all members of the crow family crows, which means you'd call blue jays, ravens, and other birds crows, too. Which you said you don't.
It's okay to just admit you're wrong, you know?
Your illustrations in the background are super awesome!
"...I, for one, welcome our new corvid overlords."
Hey it just so happens that I am a 5th grader, and can recite up to 94 on the periodic table, and I literally started 3 weeks ago! If you are also a 5th grader, and have gotten 2 scholarships, and watched this video, then you will qlso get VERY annoyed.
*also
crows are smarter than you
nahh the crow is still smarter then you
"qlso" yeah, so smart
+AGmantheAG , Like you don't do typos
And what are humans? Plants? Shouldn't we say "other animals"?
It's easier to just say "Animals".
Man I love crows. They're awesome.
They can also speak and understand commands. They struggle with pronouncing words since their vocal cords aren't as versitile as a parrots but know the words and can be observed actually mumbling to themselves. They also understand commands and although they rarely follow them(just because they are stubborn) they can be taught a few tricks. They also recognise faces and certain words
Crows arent so intelligent they could take over like that, you know that, but they are pretty birds with beautiful sounds I love to hear, and I love how they can figure out how to solve problems like that! It is pretty fascinating knowing what these birds are capable of!
I love these birds. If you look into a galah's eye you don't see much going on. But you look into a crow's or raven's eye and you see an cool and calculating intellect looking back into yours.
Everyday in school at break, after the bell rings, I can always see a crow arriving at one of the school buildings. After the crow seeing everyone get out, it flies back somewhere a bit further away. After the bell rings again and we get inside, 3 crows arrive and wait till everyone is inside to peck on the food on the ground. They learned that the bell ringing means students getting in & out the yard.
A piece of information: I heard about a person who could understand crows.
Ravens also have the ability to mimic human speech like parrots. There are videos of people having conversations with crows. That seven year old intellect and speech ability makes them very versatile.
