      He can't fly, so if he was in the wild, he might perish quickly. Idk about mating, providing for chicks and teaching them how to survive. Is that totally instinctual, or would he have learned that by his bird family, too?

    My grandma nursed a raven back to health with her mother when she was little. He had a broken wing. He stayed for the winter and left in springtime fully healed. And as soon as the next winter came around, they suddenly heard a weird knocking on the window. Jakob was back to spend the winter in comfort with his human family. He repeated this every year.

      I started feeding birds a few years ago, got the usual blackbirds, tits, then nuthatches, a pair of coloured woodpeckers, with the jaybirds I started feeding tiny (frozen) pellets (1-2 grams, 2 each time) of minced meat. After about a year, it seems the jaybirds have moved on, about a 100 meters down the road.
      A pair of crows have taken over, it seems more or less just two. But last year they got a "child", very annoying, because it was constantly begging for food (even though just as big as its parents), and the voice of crows is really not the most beautiful.
      And this year there is another new one, almost as noisy.

    After moving into my flat 10 years ago I befriended a family of crows so 9 years and I've got their full trust their kids also sit on my shoulders as I feed them. One day I'm at work my ring doorbell alerts me to 2 lads trying to steal my motorbike but unfortunately for them the crows who I've fed for years began attacking these lads who had no choice but to give in. I was gobsmacked. And for that I treated them to a slap up meal literally. I absolutely adore these birds their intelligence is insane and I admit I love them I really do out of respect and cos I've known them so long.

    The friendship with the dog makes sense. In the wild, ravens and wolves would hunt together and develop friendships, so it could be an instinctual thing where your raven just choose your dog as his best friend. The behaviors of how your dog and raven interact do sorta seem similar to videos I've seen of how ravens and wolves interact when they're having fun together. But your raven definitely seems genuinely happy with you. Given how smart they are, the adult child analogy is pretty accurate.

      @@blondbraid7986 The ravens can cue the wolves in onto where prey animals are (or where carrion is), and then the wolves let the ravens pick over the kills and finds, usually after the wolves are done (wolves can break up the food for them) but it isn't unknown to see the ravens eating at the same time.
      That may sound like they just follow each other just for food but they do actually interact a bit beyond that; ravens will often watch and play with pups and harass prey for the wolves when they're on the hunt, and any animal seen harassing the ravens around the wolves will meet a very swift and violent end.

    My grandpa had a pet crow when he was a teenager. One day, the crow got loose, so his mother went out to look for it. At one point, she saw some construction workers and stopped to ask the if they had seen a crow nearby. The construction workers laughed at her. But then a moment later, a crow came swooping down and landed on my great grandma's shoulder. She just said, "There you are." to the crow and left, leaving the construction workers speechless. I believe they had that crow for many years.

      It was a damaged wild bird, and just because she works as a vet, doesn't mean she has a duty to adapt it into her home. But who else would, what was the alternative? Birds are a lot to handle if you live with one, it's a real commitment. So I think it's understandable that she tried to raise him into some kind of semi-wild crow. It seems ok for the bird imo.

      Easy to befriend birds. Assume a relaxed position and put lots of bird seeds around you. Do it in the evening before the sun goes down. Usually I put a blanket in a field or green grass and put lots of bird seeds around me. They will sneak and just don't make sudden moves. Put food in your hand and let them feed off of it. After 3 months you can pet them.

    I had a pet crow who I rescued when his nest got blown down in a storm. There were two others that didn't survive the fall, and the parents were not to be found. With help from the SPCA I learned how and what to feed him, and succeeded in raising him to maturity. Fortunately his troup knew where he was and came often to check out his progress. When he was old enough he flew off to join them, and that was that. Up to that point I'd rescued many lost and damaged birds, but the crow was different. He was far more intelligent and we had a far deeper connexion, right from the start. For the time that I had him he was very high-maintenance, but every second with him was worth it.

    Walt really zeroed in on the “AH” part of his name and made it his whole voice. What a good birb.

    1:40 it sounds like he is mocking her about eating the passionfruit, such a smart dude.

    When I was about 13 I came across a crow with a broken wing and took it home. I kept it in my room for a couple of days before building an open top pen outside in the garden. I called him Jack and he used to sit on my shoulder and got excited when I came home from school to see him. Sadly one day after school I went down to see him and a cat had been in his enclosure. Jack forever changed my view on crows.

    I would never take an animal out of the wild if that was where they belonged, but sometimes they just drop into your lap like that. Such amazing creatures, corvids.
