Just watched on PBS the show "nature" ( murder of crows).
How fascinating! I knew crows were smart but not how much!
They make tools ( only 2 other animals besides us do that, elephants and chimps) !
They recognize faces, comuniacte differently to family and other crows with different tones. H
ave different warning sounds for humans, hawks and cats!
They also mate in pairs and the older sibblings stick around and help parents with the younger chicks!
