This is crazy. It's a tiny paper bucket with food in it just far enough in a test tube to keep the crow from being able to reach in and grab it. The only thing loose is a single metal stick. The crow starts immediately as the video does and, in the next 40 seconds, your mind will get blown wide the fuck open by the shotgun of awesome. Prepare for the future, for the future is crows.

You most of had some serious hard on.

I just saw a bird picking up a bucket , nothing to see here folks.

The Corvid Family-fucking shit up since the post-cretacious.

bornkiller · #4 2008-09-11, 06:16

It would only terrify me when it found different ways to cook it and post its find on OI.

Honestly, after I saw it, I had sex with like two moms. They weren't... they weren't your mom, but they were pretty good. Like, not great, but good enough. Good enough for moms.

The bird picked up a metal twig, saw that the striaght stick wasn't going to cut it, and then bent it into a hook and got the food.

I was expecting a crow making a wrench with its nuts or something

I didn't confirm any of what I am about to post, it is purely from my horrible excuse of memory; I can't even remember if I ate lunch today.

I do believe that the Ravens intelligence is second only to the African Grey Parrot in bird intelligence; The African Grey having the intelligence of an average three year old human. There was an extremely well trained Grey named Alex that was capable of doing things that would (hippy speak) blow your mind. I think the crow is very closely related to the Raven. See Bad_Omenz post and do your own research to confirm this if you care.

Someone with way too much time on their hands, please confirm or deny the information I have supplied here. It will not only be interesting to know, but will also validate this Lottery Ticket post as a winner or loser.

They can easily get in and do as much damage if you left your window open , retard.

Mokothar · #14 2008-09-12, 10:35

Look, I'm going to acknowledge the elephant in the room here ...

Such a pretty little paper bucker ... in a tube that was duct taped in place?
Seriously, what the fuck?

Oh, yeah crows are remarkably intelligent, capable of complex social interactions, toolmaking and situational analysis (learning how traffic lights work for example)
This is old news, but a nice vid regardless

40 seconds? I can pick up a bucket way quicker than that; crows ain't got nothing on humanity!

southernsun · #16 2008-09-12, 14:26

Cool vid.

That crow has more intelligence than most people on totse.

Actually no, only two animals have ever used tools without being trained. Chimps and crows.

browncloud · #18 2008-09-13, 23:27

And otters.

Crows are my favourite bird, they are very interesting.

uh, have you ever watched raccoons stealing your garbage?

or an elephant painting?

exactly. lots of animal use tools.

Galgamech · #20 2008-09-14, 08:11

I wonder if it has been trained? Birds are very good at learning tricks

Edit: I have looked it up and these are some smart birds. They do things like this and more with no training

xxombie, you're not allowed to post any more. You quit, remember?

I'm not xxombie, I'm an illusion.

tinit · #28 2008-09-15, 15:56

3 pages (now 4 thanks to me ) for that piece of shit . do me a favour and post something useful or in the slightest bit entertaining . just for that im gonna go kick a crow

Gorloche · #29 2008-09-15, 18:03

Didn't expect this to get nearly this many views or posts. Bitchin' sweet. And that Wikipedia page on Corvidae family was really cool.

Sorry for wasting 40 seconds of your life with information instead of blinking lights and loud sounds, tinit.

Maybe next time, I'll be a better father for you.

I am trying to be a better father for you, but you won't take my hat.
