Default *** Official *** P99 Crow Appreciation Thread

Everyone knows that crows are obviously the smartest animals in the world, but did you know that crows have been known to use a series of tools in specific sequence to accomplish a job?

"He watched as Betty spontaneously bent a straight piece of wire and used it to retrieve a snack. The researchers then repeated the experiment with just a straight piece of wire to see if it was a fluke. Betty was able to bend the wire and get at the food nine times out of ten."
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/2178920.stm

"In their Science article, the researchers point out that Betty's accomplishment—purposefully modifying objects into tools without prior experience—is almost unknown in the animal world. The article cites an experiment in which chimpanzees failed to straighten a length of piping, and pass it through a hole to retrieve an apple, until they were coached. For Kacelnik, Betty's use of creative problem-solving based on past experience may be evidence of inferential reasoning. Some scientists, he said, believe that even apes lack this capability."

So let's share appreciation for our most intelligent and in this writer's opinion some of our most attractive neighbors, the Crow.

Because crows are smart:
