crow playing

[@stephanbuth8195]

for me it is unbelievable that birds, just like dogs or cats, lie on their backs when they seem to have complete trust in humans.

[@louisc.gasper7588]

The capacity for play: one of the marks of intelligence.

[@Freeyourself206]

That is not a mark of intelligence. Can you cite your source for that, or were you just sharing your own thoughts? I have learned about intelligence and was never taught it had anything to do with play.

[@louisc.gasper7588]

@@Freeyourself206 Specifically as to birds: See "Relative brain size in Australian birds" by Donald C. Franklin,Stephen T. Garnett,Gary W. Luck,Cristian Gutierrez-Ibanez & Andrew N. Iwaniuk, in EMU - Austral Ornithology, Volume 114, 2014 - Issue 2. Stacy Morford used the data in this paper to determine "birds that play with others have the biggest brains." The biggest brains relative to body weight, of course. The same has been found true for "playful" mammals such as otters. The phenomenon is associated both with "object" play and "social" play. Okay, I ponied up, now how about you? You say you've learned about intelligence, but were never taught it had anything to do with play. What do you have to demonstrate that the correlation doesn't exist, as opposed to its just having been omitted from your education?

@Goji Goodra It's only been three weeks. Maybe she's going to source materials. Snicker.

[@1derfullBeast]

@@Freeyourself206 well, it's so very logical: when your organism is just made for getting food every day only, you are not interrested in play, because it wouldn't help you: a beeing that plays, is interrested, and interrest ALWAYS is a sign of intelligence:-) ask humans with low school education, what their interrests are: you mostly find very low interrest in complex or scientific things- they just aren't curious!

[@Sn1ckerdoodles]

Dont most animals engage in play though?

[@CASHXRAT]

I will never cease to be amazed by animals’ desire to play and enjoy themselves. “Fun” seems to be universal.

[@Spike1885]

warmed my heart to watch.

[@mouserat2545]

guy: aw the hawk is going crazy, thinks the crow's hurt lol flock of pigeons in the background: *milling nervously*

[@nobshistoryengineering4421]

Crows are smarter than a lot of the humans I've met xD

[@eschwarz1003]

crows are so engaging and intelligent. Wondered what his bands are related to.

[@piranhaplantX]

Corvids in general are all rather intelligent, similar to the greater parrot family of birds.

[@angelinasouren]

So cute

[@askjeevescosby2928]

Teach a crow to be friendly and the only thing it says is "give me a dollar" then send it loose to gather money from people 😆

[@raideurng2508]

That's one happy crow.

[@DeMaddin81]

Birds are the best! :o)

[@janellehoney-badger6525]

Just your everyday inter species playtime, ah the life.

Вот это показатель УМА, остроумия и РАЗУМА, ТРУДОЛЮБИЯ,, СТАРАНИЯ И НАХОДЧИВОСТИ, ТАЛАНТА, ИДЕЙНОСТИ И ОТЛИЧНАЯ СМЕКАЛКА, Браво́!

[@defluxion]

Absolutely amazing creatures. Ravens and blue jays, who are also corvids, are also really incredible. The question is: cracked corn or peanuts?

[@sossboygenes6967]

His ancestors are turning over in their graves 😂.

[@BlackMasterRoshi]

[@allwrathnograpes]

[@tootbender6935]

it looked just like a cat.

[@JosueMartinez-ww1vj]

The crows are just so friendly and playful like any other friendly animal, it was terror movies that marked them as evil.

[@lum1nosity589]

What a cute dog :>

[@controllerplayer1720]

[@Freeyourself206]

The narrator creeps me out. He mentions the bird being dead/injured 4 times in less than a minute. That guy is highly suspect to me.
