Crow players in the Japanese Metropolitan meta are severely OP, using their knowledge of human player constructs to farm loot utility initiatives. I think they're due for a nerf tbh.

They're even seen playing with wolf pups to ensure a bond even in early age, they really don't fuck around

Could also be unrelated wolves noticing that when crows circle around, food is near

​@@gideonmele1556 Ravens are shown capable of forming bonds with other species in many other instances. And wolves can also form connections with members of other species. Ravens are intelligent enough to use them as a tool, and wolves are smart enough to follow these "commands". There is also a lot of bond forming behaviour, and Ravens also lead wolves to cayote's and the like. So, it is extremely unlikely that it is unrelated.

@@gideonmele1556 yet crow or raven seems to never touch large carcass independently despite they already found it first. Not only the carcass possibly too tough for bird without hooked flesh tearing beak, it can give risk if they can attacked by something that interested in small animal instead of large carcass

Funny how high intelligence builds and liking dogs seem to go hand in hand.

Oh they can fly? Yea sounds pretty op to me

Also bottle tops. And just about anything else they can find that's small and slightly shiny!

Might not be so great. :-D When my grandma was a kid, she and her siblings found young injured magpie. They took her home and helped her recover. Then set her free, but the magpie was like "nope, free food and shelter from predators and elements? Sign me in!", and she stayed, eve tough she could fly away any time. Anyway, soon after their dad started to find out that his cigs are going missing. He started to suspect that his son, grandmas brother, was stealing them and secretly smoking. Well, that was until he had to repair something on the roof and found whole stash of cigs behind the chimney. The magpie was stealing them, because she liked their shiny packaging. Oh, and the magpie also learned to talk, at least a few word. But since my grandma and her siblings were teenagers at that time, those were certainly... choice words. 😀

Adapyability nearly always trumps specialization in nature. If there ever is a ban on humans, personally I think Corvids are among the very top to take up their niche. More so then Apes, Elephants, Dolphins or Parrots.

I wanna see another lifeform that can maintain high int by consuming only other animals’ vomit.

@@KawaiiEvoMiiThat's a bot... reason and arguments aren't going to do anything.

@@HistoricaHungarica rats are pretty smart

I would guess it’s less gratitude and more about making and retaining friends. Crows will do the same with humans who feed them.

Can't blame them, the humans in San Bernardino are more wild than the animals lol

I think it's normal crow behavior to give someone random stuff to watch for they reaction. They do this all the time while looking for a partner.

I like the idea that its like 'Hey these are colorful, and those guys are colorful-- Perfect!'

Or they were just paying rent like the rest of us xD

"Friendships" is debatable. More like owning pets.

@@yoursonisold8743 you can see your pet as your friend lol

@@keeprollin9911 Yeah you can and it shows a concerning lack of perspective. Friends should be equals. I'm not saying you cant love your pet, that is normal bonding. People can also love their cars or objects. Humans have the capacity to form emotional attachments to anything. But a friend needs to be a peer and equal. If you have all the power in the relationship it's not much of a friendship. In romantic relationships this is considered bad for a reason. To get back to pets, they don't have the capacity to understand friendship. They know obedience or have an instinct to protect and care for family. To the animal their owner is part of the family or their superior. Crows tame wolves like humans tamed them before, to achieve a goal. It's a symbiotic relationship, not friendship. Playing with pups causes attachment, which makes them easier to control. Leading the wolves to food sources benefits both sides. In the end nature rarely does anything more than try to preserve itself. If you want animals on the level of human relationships you need to look at dolphins, some species of apes and elephants. Not dogs or wolves.

​@@yoursonisold8743 we got a yapper here

@@yoursonisold8743 i absolutely don't want to insult you or your thoughts, you have explained them very thoroughly, but i would like to criticise what you have said there. first of all, friendships aren't romantic relationships. you should under no circumstances have a romantic relationship with an animal that is not a human. i think we both agree here. however, not everywhere where a romantic relationship is not an option often because of the power inbalance, is a friendship also impossible. for example a private teacher cannot have a (moral or healthy, i unfortunately need to specify this bc some people are disgusting monsters) romantic relationship with their student, however a friendship is possible. so i would not agree on your argument that freindship always has to be between peers with the same power levels. you can also be friends with your superior at work for example. just bc you follow someone's orders doesn't mean you cannot be friends. if you see your pet as a family member rather than a friend, then yes, technically you don't have a friendship but a family relationship. however, id argue a family relationship esp if it between two beings that aren't blood relatives can have a lot of similarities with a friendship. so it is rather a discussion about terminology instead of concepts. in a family as well, not all members have the same power if you look at children and their parents for example. not everyone sees their pet as a friend and that's ok. but you definitely can see your pet as your friend, and if dogs had the tools to understand human language like humans do, i bet a lot of dogs would use that term to describe their people as well. that's something we can only speculate about though. the way my two dogs act when i get home after a couples weeks by nearly suffocating themselves sticking their heads through the holes in the gate, the little bumps or loud over the top yawns when they want my attention, how they throw themselves onto the ground when they want me to pet them etc it's hard to believe that they do that bc they are obidient or bc they want to protect me. i think it's more likely that they want the social contact like humans with attention and love from one another. something pretty close to a friendship i'd say.

Not sure either black or blue has a great advantage in your typical crow player environment!

@@Fledhyris plain blue no, but patterns can be handy even when they aren't colour matched (see tigers)

The weird part about the Stealth attribute is that when you break down its mechanics, it's actually context-sensitive to whatever detection methods you are facing up against. There is almost no such thing as universal stealth.

​@@Strateliersomething the U.S. military struggled to figure out. 😄

Didn’t get why he said Parrots aren’t stealthy either. They’re being colors are a great camouflage in their habitat with all the bright fruits and saturated environment. They just aren’t the typical camouflage colors in ‘our world’

Sounds like something which can be tested. Try the scream at the next funeral you attend, gather feedback during the wake. If you find you're unwelcome at the wake, you'll know it's true and you were considered too cool.

Elephants and specifically mammoths seemingly have burial grounds for herd members who pass.

Its not so much a funeral as it is a post-mortem examination of the corpse to asses if the threat is still present, which is still cool in and of itself. Plus there is some evidence that corvids do mourn, just that this 'ceremony' is more a utilitarian thing as opposed to a social one.

This provides more depth as to why they're collectively known as a 'murder'.

That's cool

cats doing the cat thing

i have seen that complete video. the cats were already in the phase of fighting. the crow was actually trying to distract them from fighting by pecking one

Cats, especially housecats, have all sorts of glitchy behavior. The story I heard was that they were never supposed to be a human support class, but the two player communities figured out how to make it work, there were maybe some unintended interactions (purr buffing is the obvious example). Instead of banning or patching it, the devs supposedly just ruled that if you want to do human+cat parties, you have to deal with the glitches as well as the standard communication barrier, behavioral conflicts, etc. But I have no idea if that's actually true.

Subclass.... Edit: I know what you mean and it's ok. I'm just messing around.

brother ravens got hunted to extinction in central europe, and china eradicated ALL crows for a couple of decades. magpies have also historically been hunted down, but they are the most colorful corvids i appreciate your point of insight, and think there is some merit to it, but your conclusions stem from a lack of knowledge.

By putting up ineffective effigies made of straw/hay to try and keep them away.

@@leonhardable central european here with ravens, magpies, and crows living in his town. so not sure why you believe they are extinct. They were hunted though yes, but in the modern meta not a lot of people give a shit about them anymore

@@attaggee i highly doubt you actually have ravens living in your city but you're right, i worded that wrong. what i meant to say is "ravens were hunted to near extinction pre industrialization and are only very slowly coming back" crows and magpies breed quicker and are harder to spot, so they always managed to avoid this fate. anyways, corvids have historically been hunted down really hard.
