There’s a flock of Ravens near my house all year. I talk to them every time I see them. I say “hello”. I’ve been living here for almost 5 years. This spring I was outside talking to them n one answered me with a “hello”. I was in awe. I had my husband come out and I said hello again and it answered me again, clear as day. My husband got to hear it too. He said he wasn’t surprised because he knows I talk to them all the time and that they’re capable of mimicking our words. I was astonished but it was no big deal to my hubs. He’s known me since we were 3 years old n said, “You’ve always had a special connection with animals. 💝I recently bought raw peanuts in the shell for them. My neighbor isn’t too happy about it because they make a lot of noise when they all come to our trees at once. I’m thrilled! They’re amazing creatures. 💝🌎💝
Here's a funny story to tell: I remember hearing this from a friend who had a teacher who had been teaching in their school for more than a decade. Now, because she had been in the job for more than a decade, every year, year 9 students always go to this specific park for an school curriculum excursion. and every time they go, she warned her students that the magpies will soon come around and start flying low to attack her. They all thought she was joking. Lo and behold, not far while everyone was walking in the park, a huge flock of magpies started flying in, and she instinctively holds up her bag to avoid being pecked on her face. Everyone who saw that for the first time were shocked, but laughed at the absurdity of the situation. She know that they remember her. They remembered her too well (because these particular magpies are actually territorial) and habitually attack her. Of course, it takes a good incentive of a bag of bird feed to dissuade them, but nonetheless. Magpies, ravens and crows definitely hold grudges against you for anything.
Why did you show clips of Jessamy (Dream's beautiful pied raven) when you were focusing only on Matthew during the discussion? Who do I think it's cuter? Jessamy! You spent so much time focusing on Matthew, as though he's the only raven associated with Dream, that you pretty much ignored the real MVP. That beautiful girl died trying to free her master/friend. Shoutout to Jessamy!
That is greatly oversimplified but also inaccurate. Other primates would, before most other animals. Being our closest animal cousins, apes would definitely become the next ''rulers'' - but even then, you need to define what you mean by ''rule''. Primates are currently in their equivalent to a ''stone age'' as they can make and use tools, like many other animals But let's say those primates also die off - avians do not require dominance like mammals, so they wouldn't need to ''rule'' the world or ''claim'' territories and such. Birds also do not have the same impact on an ecosystem as other, larger animals. The truth is, no other animal behaves like humans. Even if humans are gone, no one species will replace them, unless they themselves ''become more human-like'' in behaviour. With humans gone, many other species will die off too. Cats, dogs, livestock, pandas, etc - those are all mostly dependant or originate from human interactions. The one species that is often mentioned in terms of ''ruling'' or ''dominating'' the planet, other than plants and fungi, are *_ants_* - they are everywhere, huge colonies, can use tools, and can greatly affect an ecosystem. But again, they don't seek that, they just _are_ Bigger animals or more impactful animals _(in regards to their environment)_ would ''rule'' the world long before ravens would. But ruling the world is an abstract concept that we cannot even define for humans - the potential for destruction? The potential for change? The numbers? The mastery of resources? Because various species _(not limited to animals)_ also perform better than humans.
Did you know that 80% of the world is gay? Did you know that the rarest kind of attraction is between people of the same race and opposite sexes? There comes a point where to pushing of the SJW pathogen is primary, and the story secondary. This series found that point
Are you even aware that Neil Gaiman's work, even 33 years ago, was already progressive? It isn't new or specific to the fact Netflix published this show. In fact most was produced by WB Television Studios & DC Entertainment. Netflix is pretty much just the distributor. Also, you say those elements are primary and the story is secondary - well that's erroneous - you can substitute any character with any gender, orientation and ethnicity, *_and the story would still work_* - that's how you know they don't make up the primary element.

It’s not called a flock of ravens, it’s called a unkindness of Ravens.
@@plan_r4005 Thanks 👍🏽
Wait this is adorable 😂. I’m in the middle of the show now and already love it
The Sandman is currently my favorite series on Netflix ❤️❤️😊

I have a connection with cats and crows
Yes bird s can have conservations with you I get into arguments with mine all the time
Fun fact: It’s been confirmed that due to their cognitive abilities & intelligence, crows & ravens would rule the world if all humans were gone.
That is greatly oversimplified but also inaccurate.

This is Jessamy erasure and I will not stand for it
Jokes aside, very interesting video!

Love Netflix 🤩
Damn, it’s crazy that Patton Oswalt killed his wife.
She died of a drug overdose, Troll. Find a new way to seek attention that doesn’t involve trying to wreck peoples’ reputations.
Please bring Kathrin Langford into this series
i love watching Netflix i mean who doesn’t?
😃
I lab Netflix
I think the voice of the raven was miscast. Such an annoying voice. (I liked Dom DeLuise as Jeremy in The Secret of NIMH better)
Subscribed for 48 hours. My inbox and feed are flooded. This is horrible. Unsubbed.
Lioness is better

Do people have to repeat this 10 times to join your cult or something?
Have fun inbreeding…

Dude, if you’re so scared of gay people on your screen, there’s PLENTY of straight content available.
Right wingers call liberals “snowflakes” but have a hissy fit when they see queer people on tv. 🤷🏽♂️
