The partnership between ravens and wolves goes back to Norse mythology -- Odin's birds scouted ahead and led prey to the god's canines, a relationship that provided food for all.
And a single raven can carry off half a pound (220 grams) of meat. When the birds arrive in the dozens, that can make even a downed bison disappear quickly, Marzluff said.
“Ravens get a lot more out of this deal than wolves do,” he added…
But “never did we anticipate or expect them, I think, to be able to hold in their brains, which aren’t much bigger than your thumb, information over thousands of square miles,” he said.
“We’ve underestimated them.”
Humans think we’re the smartest animal when we’d do well to learn from our siblings and cousins.
The one I saw in a parking lot had sense enough to refuse my buddy’s MacDonald fry, too. Maybe it was already full, maybe it was hoping for an apple core.
we think we’re the smartest cos we’ve got big heads but it turns out, we just have extremely fat brains. but seriously, the intelligence birds achieve with much smaller brain sizes is impressive.
