Research shows crows can remember a single threatening human for years, linking faces with danger after just one encounter.
They warn others through calls and behavior, spreading that memory across flocks and into the next generation.

Crows and ravens are smarter than most of the people I've known. Same with my cats.

I got my lunch buddies at work daily. They let me hand feed them and bring their babies up every spring.

I love crows, when I found a dead crow on the curb. I wrapped it up in my shirt and rode my bicycle home, about 110 blocks. crows lined up on each side of the road as attending a funeral making their beautiful sound, when I got home they did one huge circle and departed.in the evening I found a perfect grave sight to lay him to rest.

Love love crows - feel bad for them because peoples dislike of them is based on how they look & sound. I like them. Always have food for them.

this has been known for DECADES. I am 52 and knew about research done in the 80s with guys wearing masks. They changed behaviours with the masks. Years later the same flock of crows remembered those faces and acted accordingly. You are hella late to the party. 😂😂😂😂🤷🏼♂️

My grandfather had a crow with a split tongue and could talk . They said it was very intelligent. This was before I was born .
