That is exactly what I thought after watching this video. I think this bird is eating the dead cats in these streets. These "Corvidae" must have witnessed stray cat fights and know these might result in food (dead cat that loses the fight). The bird is obviously increasing tensions with one cat which might attract other alpha males to the scene and a fight is soon inevitable. Just a theory but the squirrels story would coincide with the "Eating Dead Cats" theory.
Those ravens can be very smart. I know from personal experience. I was up for promotion in the company i was working. All i had to do was to complete a project which i worked on in my office. A raven was watching me from the window and realized what was going on. When i would leave, he would come in my office, use my laptop and in the end negotiated a better deal with my boss and sto|e my promotion.
@@nunyabiz9418 That was so out of place you might as well have walked into a random crowd and yelled "FUCK SJWS AM I RIGHT?" Sounds like something a raven would do
i feed ravens all the time. i live in a village on mt hood and there hundreds of them. i have many many vids of me feeding them. or tons of them fighting over food. flying. in my weather reports and the guy who makes all the music for my vids. he wrote a song about me feeding the ravens. it is epic.
I learned my lesson messing with a crow when I was 14. I threw a rock at a crow thinking it was just gonna fly away! Not this bird! It chased me for a week. Waiting for me to go to school and following to the store! I am still traumatized to this day!
I had a neighbor she was an introvert, and suffered from anxiety issues. She fed and cared for wild ravens. She built them nests, and fed them. They fell in love with her and started bringing her gifts, like ear rings, rings, necklaces, sunglasses. It was amazing to watch. And they protected her house and yard. If you didn't belong there, they would swoop down and attack you.
at my local park, I saw a raven drink out of the human water faucet. used its legs to press the button, and drank from the stream. Bird left, then others crows did the same thing...I was speechless
Hes correct about ravens being smart. When i was 17 one once broke into my house, stole my mums car and crashed it. Then to top it off it framed me to make me look guilty
I once read an article about COWS being as smart as a 7 year old kid and that they could understand idioms and hunt with wolves in the woods. I remember it being a little weird, but I had a cow just like that when I was a kid. Months later I found out that it was actually CROWS and not COWS.
Ravens by my house figured out my dad was feeding them, they would then hang out by his garden and eat bugs eating his plants. They also figured out which bedroom window was his and would sit there if their feeder was empty. These birds would look you in the eye and you could just tell; it was like looking at a person.
I saw two crows steal fries from a seagull a few days ago. They started following it from a distance. My guess is gulls are better at finding food due to better eyesight or sense of smell or some shit and the crows realised this. They watched the crow land near some fries and would take turns taunting the gull from just out of distance while the other fed. The teamwork was amazing and the way they moved showed an understanding of distance and position on par with a skilled out-fighter. Seagulls are no bird-brains either. I once saw one limp over to a person eating and the person fed it. Once it had enough it walked away normally. Little fucker faked a limp knowing it would get sympathy! Blew my freaking mind!
Fair point, maybe it's thought pattern wasn't that sophisticated, maybe it just saw another seagull limping and getting food and just copied the behaviour with no deeper layer of understanding but the result was the same. At the same time though I wouldn't rule it out, predators need to understand how other animals think to some degree to predict their behaviour, gulls care for their young so must have some understanding of sympathy and they have been around humans for a very long time.
Animals are way smarter than we give them credit for. Faking a limp may have been observed and copied behavior, but it's still impressive that it learned that by acting a certain way, people are more likely to feed it. Animals have behavior patterns, and if it learns that a certain behavior allows it to eat more food, it'll keep doing it.
I have seen crows attack big birds of prey in mid air. They protect their nests very aggressively and sometimes very smart. Odds are the video of the bird with two cats has to do with a nest nearby. But Seagulls have lost my respect for a smart bird since Last summer. One of them was in a bus stop that was made entirely of glass. The seagull was inside and outside there was a piece of bread. The gull kept running into the glass head first to get it like 10 times in a row. Boink "looks dazed" boink "looks dazed" boink etc..But who knows, might have been a mentally retarded one. Later that day I did see a gull steal a sandwich from a woman's hand in full flight. So that was a better example of intelligence.
Growing up my dad used to call crows. He took me hunting for lots of things from deer to geese to coyotes to turkey, but never shot crows. He liked to be social with them and I guess killing their family members is a bit of a faux pas. He said they had an etiquette, you don't just blast crow noises at them (unless they are mobbing nearby, in which case it will attract a swarm-have food and you've just made a hundred friends lol), instead, you call a few times and wait 5 to 10 seconds or so for a response. If they respond, you can try different combinations of calls; waiting for a response each time and altering your patterns to be close (but not the same, they stop responding if you just repeat their calls). Different regions have different cultural standards and likely different greeting calls/warning calls/etc. Our border collie sorted out what we were doing and would look upwards and bark in response to both our calls and the birds. Sometimes, the crows and the dog would have a conversation in a strange way, with the dog barking a few times, then carefully listening for a response before barking a little differently. Obviously not really understanding one another in the same way as us, but the mutual attempt at communication between two species left me with chills the first time I witnessed it. I live about a mile away now, and they'll still show up even when I don't bring them food to "chat". Once they attacked a hawk that was nesting near the walking trail I use after it did a close territorial flyby of me. They did their "you guys distract while I dive bomb" routine until I was past the nest. Really interesting critters, if you build up a relationship with your local murder they'll provide endless entertainment.
I lived in the arctic for a while and there are huge ravens up there, they move south in the winter. I once watched a raven hopping around on the gravel road, picking up rocks and flipping them around, he did this for about 10 minutes until he found the right rock, flew up onto my deck, wedged the roc between two boards and proceeded to clean it's beak with this tool. it was amazing
@@SilentEchoes91 do yourself a favor and google Pond Inlet, Nunavut, Canada. That's where I lived, the ravens did not stick aroun when it was consistently below -40C for months at a time.
we have ravens all over here where i am from and yes this is true, but ive never pissed one off, but they do follow you and will yell and make funny sounds at you lol, they used to come around my house all the time when I had an african grey and try and talk to him through the screen door and my parrot would talk to them all the time, it was quite the show haha
Ravens have been seen having relationships with wolves, they lead the pack to food in exchange for the scrap on the bones they couldn't of gotten to before. These Ravens were studied having friendships with the wolves and seen playing tug-a-war with the wolf pups with sticks and nibbling there tails to give chase. Very cute, always be friendly with Ravens! There were Ravens outside our house making a whole bunch of noise during quarantine, and my mom straight up walked out there and said "You guys need to leave, find somewhere else to be noisy. You are very pretty but please leave" and then were gone the next day. Maybe they just thought she was crazy but we all thought it was pretty funny 🤣
Yeah crows can tell other crows that something in the vicinity is dangerous. So even if a crow hasn't experienced the specific danger, it will still learn to be cautious about it in the future.
I saw a documentary where they taught ravens to collect change from the city and go out to these fields where they setup crow vending machines where they trade change for food 🤯
I was attacked by ravens while doing a nest inspection on a 250' tower... When your eye to eye with a pissed off mama raven shit gets serious real quick
@TreeWop @Moose Niga that’s weird. I replied to a comment about some dude that basically said he thought the goth girl was hot and he wanted to bang her. My comment either got miss-placed or the original comment was erased.
About twenty years ago,I threw a pack of stale chocolate chip cookies out in the yard. Here came a raven. He walks over to the first cookie,turns his head sideways and picks it up with his beak. He walks over to the second cookie,tips his head sideways,looks at that cookie,puts the first cookie on top of the second cookie and picks up both cookies. Then walks over to a THIRD cookie,puts the first two on top of that cookie,on the ground,picked up all three and flew away. I swear he smiled at me before he flew off. No shxx. That was one BOSS bird right there. I felt like I had just witnessed greatness right there.
Ravens are insanely smart. If you're out goose hunting, those things know you have a shotgun and they steer clear of you, even if you haven't shot yet.
Molten Smegma I once heard if you're big game hunting, a crow/raven will fly above an animal & get your attention to that direction because they know you will clean your kill there & they can have the guts afterward
@@MayorIguana In the woods here in East Texas, don't look at a crow while hunting, they'll literally alert all the animals in the forest. I think it's possible they're doing this to protect predators, mountain lions and Bob cats are starting to become a problem.
Ravens are super smart. My neighbor had dogs & the raven would open the gate, letting the dogs out, then the raven locked the gate. After the dogs were locked out, the raven would eat the dog’s food. It wasn’t until my neighbor set up a camera to see who keeps letting his dogs out, discovered it was a raven.
I had a conversation with a crow about how stupid chickens are. He would mock them and literally laugh with me whenever the chickens were doing something dumb. And he took pleasure in me acknowledging that he was not them. Crazy. He truly felt that he was more like me than he was like them. And he was right.
People keep telling amazing stories, but a much simpler action always intrigued me: Crows clearly understand how cars work. Compared to other animals that often end up as roadkill, it's very obvious crows understand cars WAY more. Flight helps them too, of course.
They pass their knowledge down to the next generation of crows right? That means they are aware of how human civilization would operate and interact with their kind somewhat, Following soldiers into conflict knowing there could be corpses to be eaten..
I’ve seen them drop large snakes in front of a semi truck in order to kill it, and they swoop back down to pick up their meal. You only need to see that once to understand these birds are not to be fucked with.
Ravens are so smart! One time me and my friends got too drunk to drive back so we asked this raven sitting in a tree outside the club if he could drive us back home, he agreed, grabbed the keys and dropped us all off! Tipped him aight, great bird👍
This made me laugh! Years ago, I rescued a couple orphaned ravens. They can solve lots of problems, figure out things in their environment. Also they can understand quite a lot of speech , and they can speak back to you. The tongue split Myth is wrong! No need, they'll speak or not, more or less, as they wish. Like parrots, some just talk more. But they all still understand you. They are a completely wild creature. Dont project domestic traits to them. But they're bright. Edit: one cool thing, they remember your face, for years. Often they visit their humans that fostered them, for years.
Vette Hogan Yeah but you followed the bird tutorial. You could not have built it without them building it first. They designed the blueprint. You were just their copycat. 😺 How else were you to know birds build nests? 😉
I raised a fledgling crow when the tree fell and the nest-mates all died. It was one of the most amazing animal experiences I ever had. He would soar across the yard, and before he knew how to land, it was like the Hitchcock movie with this squawking bird coming towards my face. He figured it out, and would jump around on me, constantly peering up to my face, as if he was always monitoring me, his chosen mama, for an indication of what was up. Crows pay attention to our face, and mannerism even more than a dog. Never, ever piss off the crows or ravens in your neighborhood. They will never forget. When I had my fledgling, every crow in the area started a flock over my house. They were like a mob, asking me to give up my hostage. They stay with family their entire life and loyalty is beyond humans. Years after my first crow baby, I found an injured one who was too old to adapt to humans. I took him home to protect until his strength improved. When I decided to release him, I stupidly took the cage out my door and opened it. That crow barely made it across the street before at least 6 gangster crows came flying over, and pinned him to the ground upside down. They would have killed him. How did they know I was releasing him? I have no idea. It was instant. I rescued him from the gang and took him back to where I found him. But I will never underestimate a crow. One chased my cat when he was eating some garbage at the curb one day. And that cat was a ninja killer, but he ran like a little bitch when the crows swooped down.
@apapz3245 not illegal. People may sometimes want to help animals and save them from horrible suffering and death. Natural agony is still agony and it's bad. So yeah when people wanna help, let THEM be
@@apapz3245 I mean the world is big, I'm not american, I'm from Europe. But yeah european countries are usually a lot more fussy with this kind of regulations, so I guessed everyone else would have looser rules on these things. Anyway, here it's only illegal to keep dangerous/protected species. That makes sense, I don't see how for instance raising an orphan black bird should be illegal
Working up in northern Canada, we had big street lamps around camp, that came on and off by photo sensors.. and these ravens would sit up there in the winter in the day!! Spread there wings, cover the senser and turn that light on to keep warm!!!
One time I smoked a joint and ended up getting into a jam session with a crow and a songbird for two hours. The three of us would take turns whistling or cawing a melody and then the other two would try to copy it. I had it recorded too but I eventually lost that phone.
Nah I heard that man. I go out on my bike regularly, always going fast as f, and I thought it was fun to say "crow" at crows as I passed them by. Eventually, they would sit on lightposts and trees waiting for me to pass them and just squak 3 times. Sometimes I would respond with a 3 beat sound. They like to fly around me sometimes and I'll sing to them while I zoom zoom zoom on that bike.
@@petesthename1588 It's just the truth... There's a status on my Facebook from the day it happened but other than that I don't know how I can prove it. It was a very magical experience. It probably helped that I'm a pretty good whistler, but I think it was also that those birds were exceptionally intelligent specimens. It was crazy hearing the crow try to sound like a songbird. They can't quite mimic the whistling sounds but somehow that just makes it more impressive. It was the kind of experience that was so odd that looking back, the more time flies the more you question yourself whether it really happened. I know it did, but in twenty years I'll probably think it was just a dream, or forget about it entirely.
I pulled up to a stop sign once and a crow hopped off the curb walked across the cross walk and right before it got to my car we made eye contact and it walked Infront of my car and hopped up on the curb on the other side of the road. Ive always wondered how man times that crow watched cars stop for people to walk across the road before it was like "I'ma fuckin try it". Its a moment I'll never forget.
Ravens are super smart, they have a complex language. I took to feeding the local ravens meat on some cold winter's days, they greet me like a friend and it's not them just being conniving with the aim of getting fed again, ravens in far away locations now greet me as well. A happy raven literally jumps with joy and flips over onto his back when flying. Such excellent fliers, they love a good storm, they play tag, I see them do it. My favorite birds, those black beauties.
I saw this documentary were a lady adopted a hummingbird, she got in a car accident and the hummingbird had to work for Walmart to help the family make ends meet... Rogan, it makes sense hummingbird are smarter than Walmart associates.
Sorry for the long post, im kinda obsessed with corvids. I had a hooded crow couple come to my yard for about a year. They would shoo away jackdaws (which are also pretty smart but can be a nuisance in large flocks.) in exchange for treats. It really seemed like the more brave male understood which birds were welcome to our yard and which weren't. After some months of gaining trust and just hanging out they started making weird unique noises at my family...almost like trying to talk. Hard to explain the whole experience, but few smart things i saw them do= -soaking hardened food in water to soften it. (Dont feed them salty things etc) -disturbing ants and sitting on them for some kind of anti-parasitic medicine -hiding excess food under a piece of moss that they dug out -making decoy hideyholes to confuse magpies -trading? With magpies. Like taking a bit of food and giving it to maggies who are way more shy. -leaving a bit of food on ground as it was getting dark, then after it had snowed during the night they nailed the exact spot and got the food. No prints on snow other than that exact spot. -chipping into big piece of food a sort of handle for beak to be able to carry it.etc etc Once some unfamiliar crow came to our yard, and the couple gave it a mafia beatdown. Laying it on its back, standing on its wings one on each side, pecking the crap out of it and then letting it go. Ravens are propably smarter but they are a bit psycho. One seems to enjoy scaring me in the woods by making crazy mimics of random words or laughter.
I have a theory: since ravens are scavengers and eat animals that are already dead-rather than killing it themselves cuz they’re not strong enough-maybe they developed a tendency to provoke two big animals to fight each other, so at least one of the animals dies. Ultimately, so the ravens can eat off of the remains of the conflict they started.
Do you remember one about a black crow who got feathers from all these different birds because he wanted to be different and amazing or whatever and at the end learns he needs to be himself?
corvids in general are extremely smart, they each have their own little personalities but you wouldn't think it if you see the odd one flying around in the wild. if you spend some time with any that are tame to humans you will see how they behave on par with dogs but they're alot smarter. we rescued a eurasian magpie that was found newly hatched after falling from a nest, here in the uk. we looked after it for a while before we got it to a decent wildlife sanctuary for corvids. and it was one of the smartest animals ive ever interacted with. this one was fully tame due to it being almost immediately imprinted on humans. it changed my entire perspective on corvids and wildlife in general, and although i've always been a lover of nature it made me realise that these birds aren't just autonomous creatures living on instinct. they are a level of conscious and have great awareness. plus when i took the magpie to the sanctuary and got shown around, the woman who runs it spoke and interacted with the ravens like they were human, and they were interacting with her because they understood what she was saying. felt like id walked into a disney film.
I went to school where my freind had a pet raven, it used follow him to school and wait in the trees outside, at breaks he used come down to him in the playground when he called, Then he would follow him home.
My dog as a child in the Yukon had a deep relationship with ravens. She would share her food, which was under a canopy next to the entrance to her house, very uncomfortable for a bird especially with a lab cross a foot away. Also when the dog would escape to roam the neighborhood they would knock over garbage cans. My impression was that the ravens would scout for good stuff and my dog would come to knock over the cans and enjoy their haul. The ravens would come and sit around her house and do raven stuff, and my dog just loved having them around, she never liked people or other dogs but she loved the big black birds.
We don't have as many ravens here as we do their lesser cousins, crows. But I can say crows are pretty smart too. They are known to bring gifts to people who give them food. They will learn to recognize you, and your car. And depending on your relationship with them you will have more or less bird poop on your car. I have seen that one myself. I used to work overnight and save my bread scraps from lunch and give it to the crows in the parking lot in the morning before I went home. They started roosting on lights and in trees around my car, and they would chase the seagulls away. At first I thought it was just about making sure the gulls didn't steal their food. Then some guys at work were talking about how the gulls eat the garbage out of the parking lot and poop on everyones cars in the morning. Having that in my mind as I got off work the next morning I noticed my car was the only one in the parking lot that didn't have any bird poop on it. The crows were returning the favor of a free meal by not letting the seagulls poop on my car. And on top of that, they wouldn't poop on my car either. So make friends with some local crows and you won't have to clean poop off your car. Especially if you feed them near the car so they associate it with the free food.
A girl at the local rescue nurses a baby raven back to health, it became incredibly bonded. She lived about 35km away from town and worked at the ski hill which is another 20km from town and she’d drive to work and the raven would be there waiting for her. She would walk her three dogs and the raven would walk with the dogs.
My dad!!!! This story is exactly like my dad!!!! My dad had a pet raven he would follow him to school and wait outside school until he walked home. It would it on my grandmas shoulda pulling the hair pins out her hair. It had so many tricks i wish i could remember them all. My dad always talked about him!
When a bird bonds with you, they're making a mating bond. That's why their connections with their owners can be so intense and why sometimes they lose it (e.g. feather plucking) when their owner is gone for too long.
The Raven was likely doing this so it can gather the fur for a nest. When cats fight, they rip a lot of hair from each other and it is one of the best things a bird can use for a nest as the scent will keep away things like skunks and raccoons which will eat their eggs.
The little instigator bird from the cat fight video wasn't a raven, it was a magpie. Although, a magpie is a part of the same subspecies of birds called corvids. Corvids are incredibly intelligent and clever birds that include ravens, crows, magpies and even buejays! You can tell that is a magpie and not a raven in the video cause they have white bodies and black wings and are considerably smaller then a raven.
a raven followed my friend home from school one day & he wouldn’t leave him. He would fly away but come back and give him presents in exchange for knowledge. Robbie literally trained this bird and once he got everything he wanted dude brought a dead animal and left for good.
Crows used to stole my pets' meals all the time. Two guarding the food, one dropping the food in water, waited a minute, *and then* all took turns to eat the now easy to swallow victory.
Ravens are extremely smart creatures. This one time a raven tricked me into cheating on my wife and I lost my kids. The raven then tricked me into committing a felony. My story didnt hold up in court, that cheeky bastard.
If it makes you feel better, she was cheating on you too. Before you did it to her and with more partners.

I saw two crows steal fries from a seagull a few days ago. They started following it from a distance. My guess is gulls are better at finding food due to better eyesight or sense of smell or some shit and the crows realised this. They watched the crow land near some fries and would take turns taunting the gull from just out of distance while the other fed. The teamwork was amazing and the way they moved showed an understanding of distance and position on par with a skilled out-fighter.
Seagulls are no bird-brains either. I once saw one limp over to a person eating and the person fed it. Once it had enough it walked away normally. Little fucker faked a limp knowing it would get sympathy! Blew my freaking mind!
Fair point, maybe it's thought pattern wasn't that sophisticated, maybe it just saw another seagull limping and getting food and just copied the behaviour with no deeper layer of understanding but the result was the same.
At the same time though I wouldn't rule it out, predators need to understand how other animals think to some degree to predict their behaviour, gulls care for their young so must have some understanding of sympathy and they have been around humans for a very long time.
@@JimGiant fair point
Nature is amazing
Animals are way smarter than we give them credit for. Faking a limp may have been observed and copied behavior, but it's still impressive that it learned that by acting a certain way, people are more likely to feed it.
Animals have behavior patterns, and if it learns that a certain behavior allows it to eat more food, it'll keep doing it.
I have seen crows attack big birds of prey in mid air. They protect their nests very aggressively and sometimes very smart. Odds are the video of the bird with two cats has to do with a nest nearby. But Seagulls have lost my respect for a smart bird since Last summer. One of them was in a bus stop that was made entirely of glass. The seagull was inside and outside there was a piece of bread. The gull kept running into the glass head first to get it like 10 times in a row. Boink "looks dazed" boink "looks dazed" boink etc..But who knows, might have been a mentally retarded one. Later that day I did see a gull steal a sandwich from a woman's hand in full flight. So that was a better example of intelligence.
Growing up my dad used to call crows. He took me hunting for lots of things from deer to geese to coyotes to turkey, but never shot crows. He liked to be social with them and I guess killing their family members is a bit of a faux pas. He said they had an etiquette, you don't just blast crow noises at them (unless they are mobbing nearby, in which case it will attract a swarm-have food and you've just made a hundred friends lol), instead, you call a few times and wait 5 to 10 seconds or so for a response. If they respond, you can try different combinations of calls; waiting for a response each time and altering your patterns to be close (but not the same, they stop responding if you just repeat their calls). Different regions have different cultural standards and likely different greeting calls/warning calls/etc. Our border collie sorted out what we were doing and would look upwards and bark in response to both our calls and the birds. Sometimes, the crows and the dog would have a conversation in a strange way, with the dog barking a few times, then carefully listening for a response before barking a little differently. Obviously not really understanding one another in the same way as us, but the mutual attempt at communication between two species left me with chills the first time I witnessed it.
I live about a mile away now, and they'll still show up even when I don't bring them food to "chat". Once they attacked a hawk that was nesting near the walking trail I use after it did a close territorial flyby of me. They did their "you guys distract while I dive bomb" routine until I was past the nest. Really interesting critters, if you build up a relationship with your local murder they'll provide endless entertainment.

I lived in the arctic for a while and there are huge ravens up there, they move south in the winter. I once watched a raven hopping around on the gravel road, picking up rocks and flipping them around, he did this for about 10 minutes until he found the right rock, flew up onto my deck, wedged the roc between two boards and proceeded to clean it's beak with this tool. it was amazing

*Caw-caw-caw-caw* the Joe Rogan experience
Ravens have been seen having relationships with wolves, they lead the pack to food in exchange for the scrap on the bones they couldn't of gotten to before. These Ravens were studied having friendships with the wolves and seen playing tug-a-war with the wolf pups with sticks and nibbling there tails to give chase. Very cute, always be friendly with Ravens! There were Ravens outside our house making a whole bunch of noise during quarantine, and my mom straight up walked out there and said "You guys need to leave, find somewhere else to be noisy. You are very pretty but please leave" and then were gone the next day. Maybe they just thought she was crazy but we all thought it was pretty funny 🤣
Odin having wolves and ravens as companions probably stems from that
I always kill ravens and crows with my air rifle. They're evil creatures

Ravens hold grudges and tell other ravens about it so THEY hold the same grudge

Yeah crows can tell other crows that something in the vicinity is dangerous. So even if a crow hasn't experienced the specific danger, it will still learn to be cautious about it in the future.

People keep telling amazing stories, but a much simpler action always intrigued me: Crows clearly understand how cars work. Compared to other animals that often end up as roadkill, it's very obvious crows understand cars WAY more. Flight helps them too, of course.
Damn i never thought of that
They pass their knowledge down to the next generation of crows right? That means they are aware of how human civilization would operate and interact with their kind somewhat, Following soldiers into conflict knowing there could be corpses to be eaten..
I’ve seen them drop large snakes in front of a semi truck in order to kill it, and they swoop back down to pick up their meal. You only need to see that once to understand these birds are not to be fucked with.

Years ago, I rescued a couple orphaned ravens. They can solve lots of problems, figure out things in their environment.
Also they can understand quite a lot of speech , and they can speak back to you.

Edit: one cool thing, they remember your face, for years. Often they visit their humans that fostered them, for years.

I raised a fledgling crow when the tree fell and the nest-mates all died. It was one of the most amazing animal experiences I ever had. He would soar across the yard, and before he knew how to land, it was like the Hitchcock movie with this squawking bird coming towards my face. He figured it out, and would jump around on me, constantly peering up to my face, as if he was always monitoring me, his chosen mama, for an indication of what was up. Crows pay attention to our face, and mannerism even more than a dog.
Never, ever piss off the crows or ravens in your neighborhood. They will never forget. When I had my fledgling, every crow in the area started a flock over my house. They were like a mob, asking me to give up my hostage. They stay with family their entire life and loyalty is beyond humans.
Years after my first crow baby, I found an injured one who was too old to adapt to humans. I took him home to protect until his strength improved. When I decided to release him, I stupidly took the cage out my door and opened it. That crow barely made it across the street before at least 6 gangster crows came flying over, and pinned him to the ground upside down. They would have killed him. How did they know I was releasing him? I have no idea. It was instant. I rescued him from the gang and took him back to where I found him. But I will never underestimate a crow. One chased my cat when he was eating some garbage at the curb one day. And that cat was a ninja killer, but he ran like a little bitch when the crows swooped down.

Working up in northern Canada, we had big street lamps around camp, that came on and off by photo sensors.. and these ravens would sit up there in the winter in the day!! Spread there wings, cover the senser and turn that light on to keep warm!!!
One time I smoked a joint and ended up getting into a jam session with a crow and a songbird for two hours. The three of us would take turns whistling or cawing a melody and then the other two would try to copy it. I had it recorded too but I eventually lost that phone.

Nah I heard that man. I go out on my bike regularly, always going fast as f, and I thought it was fun to say "crow" at crows as I passed them by. Eventually, they would sit on lightposts and trees waiting for me to pass them and just squak 3 times. Sometimes I would respond with a 3 beat sound. They like to fly around me sometimes and I'll sing to them while I zoom zoom zoom on that bike.
@@petesthename1588 It's just the truth... There's a status on my Facebook from the day it happened but other than that I don't know how I can prove it. It was a very magical experience. It probably helped that I'm a pretty good whistler, but I think it was also that those birds were exceptionally intelligent specimens. It was crazy hearing the crow try to sound like a songbird. They can't quite mimic the whistling sounds but somehow that just makes it more impressive. It was the kind of experience that was so odd that looking back, the more time flies the more you question yourself whether it really happened. I know it did, but in twenty years I'll probably think it was just a dream, or forget about it entirely.
I pulled up to a stop sign once and a crow hopped off the curb walked across the cross walk and right before it got to my car we made eye contact and it walked Infront of my car and hopped up on the curb on the other side of the road. Ive always wondered how man times that crow watched cars stop for people to walk across the road before it was like "I'ma fuckin try it". Its a moment I'll never forget.
Ravens are super smart, they have a complex language. I took to feeding the local ravens meat on some cold winter's days, they greet me like a friend and it's not them just being conniving with the aim of getting fed again, ravens in far away locations now greet me as well. A happy raven literally jumps with joy and flips over onto his back when flying. Such excellent fliers, they love a good storm, they play tag, I see them do it. My favorite birds, those black beauties.

Sorry for the long post, im kinda obsessed with corvids.
I had a hooded crow couple come to my yard for about a year. They would shoo away jackdaws (which are also pretty smart but can be a nuisance in large flocks.) in exchange for treats.
It really seemed like the more brave male understood which birds were welcome to our yard and which weren't. After some months of gaining trust and just hanging out they started making weird unique noises at my family...almost like trying to talk. Hard to explain the whole experience, but few smart things i saw them do=
-soaking hardened food in water to soften it. (Dont feed them salty things etc)
-disturbing ants and sitting on them for some kind of anti-parasitic medicine
-hiding excess food under a piece of moss that they dug out
-making decoy hideyholes to confuse magpies
-trading? With magpies. Like taking a bit of food and giving it to maggies who are way more shy.
-leaving a bit of food on ground as it was getting dark, then after it had snowed during the night they nailed the exact spot and got the food. No prints on snow other than that exact spot.
-chipping into big piece of food a sort of handle for beak to be able to carry it.etc etc
Once some unfamiliar crow came to our yard, and the couple gave it a mafia beatdown. Laying it on its back, standing on its wings one on each side, pecking the crap out of it and then letting it go.
Ravens are propably smarter but they are a bit psycho. One seems to enjoy scaring me in the woods by making crazy mimics of random words or laughter.

I have a theory: since ravens are scavengers and eat animals that are already dead-rather than killing it themselves cuz they’re not strong enough-maybe they developed a tendency to provoke two big animals to fight each other, so at least one of the animals dies. Ultimately, so the ravens can eat off of the remains of the conflict they started.

corvids in general are extremely smart, they each have their own little personalities but you wouldn't think it if you see the odd one flying around in the wild. if you spend some time with any that are tame to humans you will see how they behave on par with dogs but they're alot smarter. we rescued a eurasian magpie that was found newly hatched after falling from a nest, here in the uk. we looked after it for a while before we got it to a decent wildlife sanctuary for corvids. and it was one of the smartest animals ive ever interacted with. this one was fully tame due to it being almost immediately imprinted on humans. it changed my entire perspective on corvids and wildlife in general, and although i've always been a lover of nature it made me realise that these birds aren't just autonomous creatures living on instinct. they are a level of conscious and have great awareness. plus when i took the magpie to the sanctuary and got shown around, the woman who runs it spoke and interacted with the ravens like they were human, and they were interacting with her because they understood what she was saying. felt like id walked into a disney film.

My dog as a child in the Yukon had a deep relationship with ravens. She would share her food, which was under a canopy next to the entrance to her house, very uncomfortable for a bird especially with a lab cross a foot away. Also when the dog would escape to roam the neighborhood they would knock over garbage cans. My impression was that the ravens would scout for good stuff and my dog would come to knock over the cans and enjoy their haul. The ravens would come and sit around her house and do raven stuff, and my dog just loved having them around, she never liked people or other dogs but she loved the big black birds.

We don't have as many ravens here as we do their lesser cousins, crows. But I can say crows are pretty smart too. They are known to bring gifts to people who give them food. They will learn to recognize you, and your car. And depending on your relationship with them you will have more or less bird poop on your car. I have seen that one myself. I used to work overnight and save my bread scraps from lunch and give it to the crows in the parking lot in the morning before I went home. They started roosting on lights and in trees around my car, and they would chase the seagulls away. At first I thought it was just about making sure the gulls didn't steal their food. Then some guys at work were talking about how the gulls eat the garbage out of the parking lot and poop on everyones cars in the morning. Having that in my mind as I got off work the next morning I noticed my car was the only one in the parking lot that didn't have any bird poop on it. The crows were returning the favor of a free meal by not letting the seagulls poop on my car. And on top of that, they wouldn't poop on my car either. So make friends with some local crows and you won't have to clean poop off your car. Especially if you feed them near the car so they associate it with the free food.

When a bird bonds with you, they're making a mating bond. That's why their connections with their owners can be so intense and why sometimes they lose it (e.g. feather plucking) when their owner is gone for too long.
The Raven was likely doing this so it can gather the fur for a nest. When cats fight, they rip a lot of hair from each other and it is one of the best things a bird can use for a nest as the scent will keep away things like skunks and raccoons which will eat their eggs.
Ravens and crows have great face recognition.
Better face recognition than theiPhone X lol
Ravens have been taught to find lost coins and use them on special vending machines that dispense food.
Man, that's crazy. But have ravens tried DMT?
Zak Boukhriss damn it. You beat me to this comment.
Ravens are DMT
@@Apollyon_KingOfAbyss you aren't funny
Hank look at ur profile picture please shut ur corny ass up
The little instigator bird from the cat fight video wasn't a raven, it was a magpie. Although, a magpie is a part of the same subspecies of birds called corvids. Corvids are incredibly intelligent and clever birds that include ravens, crows, magpies and even buejays!
You can tell that is a magpie and not a raven in the video cause they have white bodies and black wings and are considerably smaller then a raven.
Appreciate the info
That is not a magpie but a hooded crow.
That's the bird from the cartoons right?
Was looking for this. The bird seemed a bit small to be a raven but I’m far from informed on these beautiful creatures.
It's Hooded crow
a raven followed my friend home from school one day & he wouldn’t leave him. He would fly away but come back and give him presents in exchange for knowledge. Robbie literally trained this bird and once he got everything he wanted dude brought a dead animal and left for good.
did you hear about the two crows who attempted murder?
Yer Mama what about them?
And, nice :)
Roderick Van Hees good shit Roderick get in there son
onward
I have a tattoo on my fore arm with two crows sitting on a branch with attempted murder on it
Better call either Harvey birdman or Charlie kelly! Both attorneys at cawwww!!!
2:55 his IMMEDIATE REACTION lol i rolled
I watched a documentary about the depression of 1929 and they showed raven nests made of barbwire in Texas because no straw available. Mind blowing.
Instantly searches for “Raven starting car”
Crows used to stole my pets' meals all the time. Two guarding the food, one dropping the food in water, waited a minute, *and then* all took turns to eat the now easy to swallow victory.
And both are smarter than SJW's
Well yeah
@sunny one

“Marty McDonald DESTROYS libtards using KNOWLEDGE with an EPIC RUclips comment! #4”

I feel sorry for that girl. She seems so sad. With possibly the raven her only friend.
