Crows may be the homicide detectives of the avian world.
Despite birds’ reputation for being, well, bird-brained, crows and other members of the corvid family—which includes ravens and magpies—are actually quite intelligent. They’ve shown an ability to understand basic cause-and-effect relationships, use tools to gather food, and recognize (paywall) individual faces. Now, research suggests crows may even go sleuthing when one of their kind dies, part of a biological inclination to identify future threats.
When faced with a person holding a dead crow, other crows will send out a warning call, called “scolding,” according to a study from the University of Washington in Seattle, published (paywall) in the journal Animal Behavior last year. To conduct the experiment, researchers—led by graduate student Kaeli Swift—placed snacks on the ground to attract crows. Once the snack spot became popular, they carried a dead crow (stuffed) out near the food. (All volunteers wore a latex mask to blend their own identities.) To draw comparisons, researchers also stood next to the feeding area with a taxidermied red-tailed hawk (an animal that preys on crows), a stuffed pigeon, or with nothing.
