Currently, the human species is the smartest on the planet.
I repeat, currently.
I walked into the living room and my mom was watching a TED Talk on her iPad. About what you may ask?
How freakishly intelligent crows are.
Crows have the intelligence and communication skills of a six-year-old child.
Scared? I’m just getting started.
Crows have the ability to plan, recognize faces, hold grudges, conspire with one another, and have incredible problem solving abilities.
A university in Seattle conducted an experiment where students wore face masks and tagged each of the crows with different colored anklets to identify them, which they didn’t enjoy.
Each time the students would put on the face masks, the crows who were tagged would find the student wearing the face mask that tagged them and proceed to swoop down and harass them
Talk about holding a grudge.
Remember that next time you shoo away a crow.
You’ll know who pooped on your car.
