I know that some people don't like crows - especially my mother. She's terrified of them.

However I find them fascinating in a way. They are so intelligent; same for rats, dolphins, pigs, etc.

Incredible!

I don't doubt it at all! I love crows and ravens, and I've been working with wildlife animals for about 4 years now. The wildlife rehabilitation center I volunteer at used to have a crow and he quickly learned a few English words. I think in general,corvids (crows, magpies, jays..etc) are very intelligent.
Last week I had a bluejay inquisitively observe me from below, peck on my head and rest on my shoulder.

I don't doubt it either. I love crows too.

You must have some wonderful experiences, Dante - I'd love to have the opportunity to do what you're doing.

You know, I'm not surprised.
I always did think crows were pretty bright!

What a wonderful job you have Dante!

I have seen several articles, videos, etc on crows and crow intelligence. I always had a fascination with crows and I sort of always knew they were a lot smarter than people thought, and so it was very interesting to learn and see those things! They are definitely one of my favorite animals.
