That's what happens when you don't think these things through. Lemme put it onto perspective. Let's say a village has one of it's members killed by a bear. That bear is one of the only major predators in the area, with wolves keeping away from it's territory. Let's say one of the villagers decides to kill the bear in retaliation. Now that the bear is dead, the wolves move into the territory and they now frequently attack the villagers. Without the bear keeping them away, it leaves heavy consequences for the village and possibly surrounding villages.
Tl;dr, all actions have consequences and you need to forsee the risks in how dealing with one problem may cause more problems to come up.

I agree. If they did, there would be more than 119 comments on this video! For me, this is mind-blowing -- I can't stop telling my family and friends about it. Why don't we utilize crows for search and rescue or other functions? They are clearly more intelligent than canines (that is hard for me to admit -- I am quite the dog lover).

you're right i have two cats , and one dog , love them , but must say , my dog is stupid compared to the bird
+Jared Focose I believe the US Military has a plan in progress to train crows to pick out terrorists and other criminals from a crowd. They are great at individual facial recognition as shown in a study by John Marzluff ("Lasting recognition of threatening people by wild American crows," J. M. Marzluff, J. Wells, et al., 2009).
A friend of mine who is an electronic engineer, for a time worked on a train that checked the state of the tracks. He told me that he found on the iron tracks some nuts, almonds, seeds, perfectly aligned. An older colleague explained to him that they were laid by crows, they used the train as a nutcracker ;-)))
I watched a documentary where seagulls have figured out that dropping shelled sea creatures worked better if they dropped them on concrete than on sandy beach, and it's been raining seashells on the nearby town ever since...I can't remember where it was. :)
one time i watched a crow struggling to crack open a nut. I walked over to it and the crow flew about 20ft back but was watching me. I crushed the walnut and then opened it with my hand, and stepped away. It then stepped closer and came back to the nut, but before taking a bite it looked up at me and the expression it had was what i could only describe as gratitude.
@@PinkCampfire that's amazing bro

The bird is a paid actor
Technically true. He was conditioned to do all the steps separately and received a reward (his pay) for every step he did right (The act). Without the conditioning, I doubt the crow would've known what the first step was.
But that's doesn't mean the crow isn't smart !!

I once adopted an injured crow last month. I put it in the cage for few days, I put some sunflower seeds and water. I forgot to put some food in a day and I saw some crow giving the injured crow some small fruits and insects. The crow managed to escape by opening the cage door, it is fully healed. Crows are intelligent animal. Some crow are visiting in our window, they put some buttons, keys, stones and etc. I am think it's a gift for me because I helped their friend.
This is so cute
definite
It's wonderful to hear that the injured crow was able to escape and fully heal with the help of its fellow crows. Crows are indeed very intelligent and social animals, and they have been known to show gratitude and form bonds with humans who have helped them in some way. It's possible that the items they are leaving at your window are indeed gifts, as crows are known to exchange items as a form of bonding and communication. It's heartwarming to see the connection between humans and animals, and it's clear that the crows appreciate your kindness towards their friend. Keep observing and interacting with them, and who knows what other insights and connections you may discover with these remarkable birds.
It should be clarified that, as was mentioned in the clip, the crow did complete these tasks on their own seperately, in this instance he was just doing them altogether. Still impressive tool use and memory, but they don't necessarily learn complicated new tasks just as simple as this on the first go. It's not the speed at which they learn things, it's the fact they can learn them at all that's so impressive.
Exactly. It shows that they have the ability to learn and retain information. Plus crows are social - this one would be able to pass the knowledge onto other crows if it had the opportunity.
@@Cottonmouth255 Yup, I've heard of many instances where a crow was taught something and later members of that crows flock were observed performing the same action.
Exactly. Much like racoon, crows uses social learning by imitating other crow behavior.
A lot of problem solving is knowing how to solve individual problems, to solve one larger problem (like math, troubleshooting network problems, etc etc). The impressing part of this is he was able to collectively put each problems solving experience together to solve one larger problem, not necessarily that he knows all the steps.

I love crows. They really are under appreciated, at least here in the States. They’re incredibly intelligent, adorable little creatures!
here in pondicherry , they steel everything and even poop in your head , we always check the tree if there is a crow, if there is one we would chase it away so it wont poop in our food when we sit under tree for taking lunch . i really hate them. they even ganged up on my cat and killed it but for my 11th birthday we are going to get new puppy 😊.
Until they set the chimney at fire with their wooden fort in it... And cats generally have another opinion about them
All that for that little piece of treat, give that Crow a whole plate!
fuckoff How???
I'd wager he took the comment literally on purpose. Crows don't eat plates ;-)
I got to watch a good example of crows' cleverness in my garden yesterday. Our resident crow had found a hunk of bread, but it was stale, rock hard, so he couldn't eat it. To my amazement, he went to the bowl of water that we put out for visiting foxes, cats, etc and dropped the bread into it - then, when it had softened in the water, lifted it out and ate it.
(Edit) Since I posted this, I looked it up on Google and what I saw has been seen many times before.
Hello
ruclips.net/user/shortsZD_uERF66Eo?feature=share
Ducks do this also. Making your food edible is fairly fundamental and I suspect many animals do it. Seagulls for example drop shells and crabs on the concrete from altitude to break them and then come down to eat if their meal hasn't been stolen in the meantime. Quite fun to see.
yes, they even throw nuts where cars pass so that they drive over them and open them.
Crows are known for their problem-solving skills and ability to use tools. In fact, studies have shown that crows are among the most intelligent of birds, with the ability to solve complex problems and even use tools to obtain food. This behavior of using water to soften food before eating it is just one example of their cleverness. It's truly fascinating to witness such intelligence in action in our own backyards.
Yes, I just read about this! It's a proto-tool food processing behavior common among birds. Apparently they weigh their options before doing it, however, because food thats dunked is more likely to be stolen under the wrong circumstances. Brilliant.
I know a certain murder of crows, we are... friends. It all started few years ago in the winter, when i notice a dusty crow sitting near the door at the balcony. I figured she is cold, or something is wrong, so i let her in for a while. birb was fun and games, friendly, but she didnt want to be touched. She got some food from me and went on her merry way. Was a cool experience, absolutely epic. Oh, how naive i was. These bird are clever. they remember. They think. Week passed, and there she was again. So, the usual business like before - went in for a while, explored a little, got some food and gone. This went until the winter passed. (crows moved to our part of the city only for the winter, then they moved and return only the next year) But this time.... this certain crow stayed. And 3 more came with her. They lost interest in exploring the house, so every morning and evening, they just came visit on the balcony for their food. (mostly scraps of meat)
Time went on, and i moved out from the old house. Was kinda sad for me, losing my "friends"
For a while. 5-6 months into a new house. I noticed 4 crows sitting on a opposite roof, looking at me. I didnt pay much attention to it. Before i knew it, i was feeding them all over again. Even bought them a new rail, so they can sit on the balcony while its raining. (they use it, trust me) and yes, Its the same murder. Apparently crows in wild have kinda large teritorry, and since i am only 2 km from the old house... yeah. They found me. I am stuck with them forever.
That's beautifully amazing.
Bet these crows faked your death too Saddam😉
Broo, if this real you should film it and put it on your channel, would love to watch it
@@MrDumas14 Saddam's crows
I like this side of you, it's a shame we never saw more of your murder of crows and less of your murder of kurds.
It shows there's more to being a Middle Eastern despot than chemically induced genocide. Well done
Someone has probably already mentioned this, but I remember seeing a post years ago where a guy would feed a crow every day and the crow started bringing him money that it would find, whereas the guy would increase the amount of food he gave the crow.. so it eventually learned that different color bills get different rewards, and he had a drawer full of money that his crow friend had brought him. These birds are scary smart lol.
I am definitely getting a pet crow. Cats don't do that 😊💖
Yes, that story has been shared multiple times on the internet and is often brought up in discussions about the intelligence of crows. It's a fascinating example of how these birds are able to learn and adapt their behavior based on the rewards they receive. Crows are indeed known for their problem-solving skills and ability to use tools, making them one of the most intelligent bird species. It's no surprise that they have been able to form unique relationships with humans in situations like the one you described.
fun fact: when people need to cut down trees in parks, they have to wear all black or hide their entire face. because crows can remember faces and can attack when their habitats are being interfered. so watch out.
So it seems we can recreate what happened to Cinderella's sisters.
So crows are gangsters of birb world
Even better they will tell other crows about the one who cut it down so its not just the ones who's home got threatened that will attack them

Hail Crows
The crow getting the stones and not knowing what to use them for at first is even more impressive, because it means it must have understood that that is a series of riddles where one leads to the next. Absolutely fascinating.
Or it means the bird sees no other first step available of the tasks it knows. It failed attempting to gather food by using the small stick so it went on the only other food gathering task it knew. Because one task led necessarily to the next, this looks more amazing than perhaps it really is. Not to say it's not very cool - it is.
@@donaljolley8222 You guys just said the same thing
@@breezy5797 not really because it's not clear if the crow 'understood that it's a series of riddles' or just try to solve at each step problem that it already knew, without seeing the connections between steps and it just so happens that the crow could solve the puzzle this way.
@@originalandfunnyname8076 This is also plausible. I could be just that. Maybe a scientific paper exists on this bird. I mean, it must right? This kinda seems like a Lab/Academic setting. Maybe some College bird. Pun intended.
Yes, it's amazing to see how intelligent and resourceful crows can be when solving complex problems. They have a remarkable ability to learn and adapt to new situations, which makes them one of the most intelligent species of birds. Their problem-solving skills and ingenuity continue to amaze scientists and researchers, showcasing just how incredible these birds truly are.
That puzzle seemed way too elaborate for one piece of food.
And to imagine before the miracles of agriculture and animal farming, humans would have to create tools for hunting, then go out and hunt or gather their own food. But now you just drive your tesla to the store and pick whatever you want. People don't even realise how easy life has become.
Appearantly not to the crow though
skorn you can even door dash lol
@@GamePhysics easy yes but we've traded a hard life for a more complicated one.
Given how humans love to solve puzzles without rewards. I would not be that surprised if the crow likes them too just for being puzzles. The food just works as goal to reach and verifies that it has been solved. Don't know but could be.
Anyone gonna talk about how pretty this bird is?
So cute
@Taffi MH
I'd gently pet its head
Pretty smart
Very pretty when he pick up your eyes.
I would love to have as a pet
I like how he's looking around, while solving the puzzle, to make sure that there're no other crows spying on him, which might then steal his reward. I watched another video, in which crows put treats in hiding spots for later, and other crows would spy on them, and then steal the treats for themselves. Then the first crow would only pretend to hide treats, in order to distract the crow thieves, and while they were occupied with the false hiding spots, the first crow would then actually hide the treat, now that he was not being observed. It makes me think that tetrapods would've kept evolving greater and greater intelligence, and would've taken our place, as a type 0 civilization, if not for that pesky K-T extinction event.

Imagine automated feed stations distributed throughout suburban areas where crows could bring cigarette butts, pop top tabs from cans, bottle caps and various other bits of common litter to exchange for food. Training a 'seed group' of crows would likely result in wild crows observing and mimicking their behavior. I wonder what other tasks they could do, especially after multiple generations of crows learning task/reward behaviors...
SOMEONE IMPORTANT NEEDS TO HEAR THIS
1-800-ELON-MUSK
Cigarette butts would be a tricky one. The reason why they're such a big problem is because most birds and rodents are attracted to them, and try to eat them, but then they get impacted in their digestive system until the die. Several small animals have been found with stomachs full of cigarette butts. For that reason, it would be tough to teach even a rather smart animal, like a crow, to exchange their tasty (but harmful) treats for boring old seed. It really would be great to utilize their intelligence for cleanup, though, just maybe not for those pesky cigarettes.
This is a million-dollar idea

I like how he periodically watches out for predators as well... humans don't have to worry about that for the most part... crows.. 24/7
Do not get me wrong. It still remains impressive BUT....
I have, for example, taught my cat to hifive me on the hand i'm shaking. But when I get food that gets him to exited he just hifives both of my hands because one of them must be the right one.
Unfortunately, I suspect that the crow is doing the same thing...
You can see that when he takes out the rocks from the wooden cages, He has no specific goal or reason in mind. He has not thought eight steps in advance. But he is used to solving these 3 puzzles and getting a reward. Therefore he does it anyway.
When he went to the stone puzzle in the plastic box he did not think: "I need the long stick so I can reach the meatbite."
The crowd thought, rather, "Oh there's that rock puzzle, I've solved it before and got a reward. Lets try that again!"
And only after the long stick has fallen out of the box: "Oh look the long stick I can use it to solve that meat stick puzzle."
The crow did not think 8 steps in advance. He only solved each of the 3 puzzles individually (like he has done before) as soon as he got the tools to do it.
I still love crows. ;)
But the crow has no motive to pull the rocks out nor does it have a motive to get the stick unless it plans to use the rocks to get the stick and use the stick to get the food. Your cat is thinking one step ahead-shake your hand and get the food. Now I am not saying cats aren't intelligent too (although probably not as smart as crows) but the two tests are not equivalent. Heck this puzzle is probably not even immediately intuitive to many humans.
The Iranian Liberal I think what Anouk is arguing is that when the crow is confronted with a problem it doesn’t understand, it simply completes the puzzles individually because it has been exposed to them before. In the same way, when we don’t know how to solve a problem, we sometimes just do tasks we are used to, without thought to the relationships with other tasks. Only once it solved each puzzle it recognized did it understand the solution to the problem.
That seems a bit far fetched. Especially considering the fact that the crow had no incentive to complete any individual step alone. It also seemed to dive into each task incredibly quickly so its not like its confused.
The Iranian Liberal The crow has been trained to do these tasks with prior food rewards. It’s incentive is similar to a dog obeying a sit or high five command. It was rewarded in the past for that action, so it performs the action as tools become available. I’m not saying that the crow isn’t smart, but a wild crow would not complete the task without training.
Usually the crow would see the piece of meat in front of it. Here it wasn't. The crow in any case is going to have to think outside the box.
"Untitled Crow Game"
Coming this fall
Honestly, I would pay for a physics puzzle game with a crow.
Not solving puzzles was never an option
that is actually not that bad of an idea
Slam dunk !
Don’t put it on the Nintendo 64
It would have been interesting to have two of those seesaw boxes, one with a long stick and the other with an item the crow is familiar with, but that obviously wouldn't help it reach the food (a ball, or something). That way, by looking at which box it chose, you could tell if the crow knew it needed a longer stick, or whether it was just solving the box puzzle arbitrarily, because it remembered being rewarded for doing so in the past.
This setup would allow researchers to gain a better understanding of the crow's problem-solving abilities and cognitive processes. By providing the crow with different types of challenges, researchers could observe whether the crow is capable of planning and using tools strategically, or if its actions are based on trial and error or simple associative learning.
Additionally, comparing the crow's performance on the different tasks could provide insights into the crow's ability to adapt and problem solve in novel situations. This could help researchers understand the extent of the crow's cognitive flexibility and whether it is able to apply previous knowledge and experiences to new tasks.
Overall, incorporating multiple types of challenges in the seesaw box experiment could offer a more comprehensive understanding of the crow's problem-solving abilities and shed light on the complexity of its cognitive processes.

I was internally giggling through this whole video.
Why
Perfect metaphor for working. Going thru all this for a small reward
My thoughts exactly hahaha
thats what government does with us as well
All that for a drop of blood.

Amazing Crow Mind
ZedTech yes indeed
Crow from knaresborough
And they still think Owls are the symbol for wisdom and knowledge
This is just awe-inspiring.
Crows deserve high respect.
When it comes to crows, I am so full of joy that he accomplished the task. Just as overjoyed as I am when children smile or do amazing things. I love crows and children.
There's a reason birds are the last surviving dinosaurs.
@Matthew_19_19_19
Naw, gator ancestors co-habitated with dinisaurs but they are not dinosaur descendants, while chickens are.
Lol birds are dinosaurs?? Sigh evolution sucks
@@tictruthinchrist3191 Yes, birds are dinosaurs and survived just like mammals that let to humans did. Birds are so unique in the animal kingdom and they are very smart. Here is some more interesting information, have you ever heard someone call a hawk a "raptor"? Raptors are different from other types of birds because they are powerful and skilled hunters. Most birds are prey to other animals, the raptors are the birds of prey or they are predatory. They hunt and kill to feed themselves.
@@DenverDonate my thing is I understand all that but to me that's illogical to believe birds are dinosaurs , here's my thing I believe dinosaurs coexisted with birds because there is fossil evidence of that I believe in adaptation more than evolution adaptation isn't evolution either, here's an example...mind you this life reproduces after it's own kind fish will reproduce fish T Rex will reproduce T Rex thats gene science 101 parent pass information to offspring code in DNA is pretty set IF 10 million years ago birds existed they reproduce generations after generations of birds of their own kind and of course depending on environmental factors some birds might have to learn to adapt to changes in environment to survive the learning of adaptations to environmental conditions can be passed to offspring ok we can say they coexisted with dinosaurs, then scientists tells us that a massive asteroid wiped out the dinosaurs the asteroid was so massive it affected the atmosphere made it hard for life to survive , ...after life rebounded bird species rebounded but not the dinosaurs all got wiped out but birds seem to flourish pretty fine ...my dilemma is how can one life form come from another life form and coexist at the same time there is no point of evolution , if birds existed with dinosaurs why would birds need to come from them ?
@@tictruthinchrist3191 Birds did not coexist with their ancestors, a dinosaur species evolved into birds but they still coexisted with the other dinosaur species.
Dinosaur's is not a "life form" it's a collective term for hundreds if not thousands of different species.
It's like saying "if humans came from primates then why do monkeys exist". (We came from primates yes, but we did not come from monkeys)
Crows: I am smarter than you think
Scarecrow: Hold my beer
Actualy the crows do notice its a dummy after a while, so scarecrows need to get moved to a different spot or change its clothing to confuse them with movement
The crow is smarter than any character in any of the Saw movies
Crows are intelligent animals! Once while driving my car i saw a crow walk on the road and put a Walnut on it and flew a circe. I drove over the nut an the crow flew back and ate it. Fascinating animals indeed!
I'm surprised he didnt just tip the food off the table and see if it falls out.
He wanted to do the test.
Brilliant thinking here
That would have been badas
*Everybody gangsta till crow starts solving problems*

3:11 cutest padding in the world🥹❤
I couldn't have figured that out
+ilovepancakeswithjam That's not a fair comparison, because the crow doesn't have the strength to do that. Instead, what if all the containers were steel and bolted to the floor, where a human couldn't get to it? It would certainly take a while to solve.
+5raptorboy1 LOLLLLL!
Cuervos rompen nueces
Pretty sure you would have... especially if you were taught each task prior like the crow was.
Me neither
thats why itachi picked crows
+ranjas csgo because itachi was a wise ninja i see what you did there.
Also the mysteriousness of crows
One time i was walking first light to school and i saw almost a hundred crows and a hundred seagulls scattered all over the school yard and nearby houses. There was a ring of the birds gathered and inside the ring was one crow and one seagull slowly circling each other like they were having an important meeting. I'm pretty sure they were plotting against us.
Or it was the big fight between two bosses over the neighborhood.
it's amazing to know that the crow can solve all the problem solving in a logical way 😊
Clever girl.
Ha
+cheekymonkey *Really?* Who ever would have guessed?
I understood that reference.
Sorry the crow was a guy
Crow:"DID U ASSUME MY GENDER!?
He could have trained that crow to do that, but I respect the fact that a bird is intelligent enough to not only remember how to do those things, but also that he's capable of being TAUGHT how to do them in the first place.
He may be a freaky little dinosaur, but he's such an amazing and smart one at least.
I think this is mostly a test to see if the crow could do it in order. In the beginning, the man said that the crow was taught how to do all these, but it was taught them separately. Now the crow has to piece all of it together and use all of the steps to get the food, on its own. I think.
what other order of steps the crow could have done? at each stage of the test there is only one thing that it can do and it was trained for each of those things... really overstated experiment...
Timur Seitosmanov
I think we're looking at it as a human would approach a problem, and not a crow. The crow could be trained to do things, but not be intelligent enough to mix things up in terms of solving it in order.
We pretty much observed a crow plan, predict, and execute a complex plan for the sake of delayed gratification.
This is equivalent to a bear using various methods to turn off an electrical system in order to steal your pic-a-nic basket.
+vjm3, here is what I imagine which makes me very skeptical... say we have a neural network, and we teach it to 'like' 4 actions. other than that it behaves completely randomly, strolling around. we put this network in this experiment. what do you expect to happen?... so, being capable to learn those tasks - yes, nice. complex planning - does not look like it.
Timur Seitosmanov
I don't think such a tool would be as efficient as this crow. It made, like, one mistake. A neural network could potentially try to do all the tasks while facing the side of a window, and not try to grasp a tiny stick to get a rock.
I'm going to be brutally honest. I didn't create this setup, nor do I fully know the inner workings of a crow's brain capabilities to make any kind of judgement. We'd have to have a good sit down with the people working on this experiment and learn everything they have to offer before we can decide.
I will just trust that this makes the crow exceptional.

A message to everyone don't harm these beautiful creatures and don't believe that they are bad energy
🙏🙏🙏
That bad energy thing very likely comes from farmers. You can't fool crows with a scarecrow (wrong name LOL) and they love to annoy cows by picking and nibbling them with their beaks.
@@truefilm6991 well they are basically smaller humans with wings then
The things animals do just to eat. In the end, animals and humans, we all have the same common goal in life: food, lol.
the second common goal is sex
+Emma Byrne 😘
no but it doesn't matter how long an animal lives if they don't manage to carry on their genetics
So Emma, sex a is a goal of yours? Do tell me more ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Food is a sub goal to the main goal of reproducing.
Crows are absolutely incredible. Intelligent beyond belief. And to think at one time we humans saw ourselves as earth's only intelligent life. Crows and ravens are absolutely incredible. My favorite birds-- by far. ☺☺❤❤
I love how instead of throwing down the last stick he gently lays it leaning against the box
I think that we all know someone who couldnt work this puzzle out, so does that make this crow smarter than a human?
I love how he says the crow did the tasks in the right order as if it were possible to do them non sequentially
As well as not solving a single complex problem. Repeating multiple tasks he already knows.
So, the takeaway is this isn’t impressive at all? 🙄
And this comment shows youre dumber as a crow! Congraturlations!
Yeah, searced that crow on LinkedIn, the guy is an sde at amazon and an ex-microsoft, ex-google system engineer.
