2. Ravens – The Feathery Criminals of the Wild
Think birds are easy to outsmart? Not ravens.
The lookout system: In hunting regions, ravens act as aerial scouts, warning prey animals like deer and rabbits of approaching hunters.
Trap saboteurs: They’ve been caught breaking open baited traps to steal the food—without triggering the mechanism!
Tool users: Some ravens have even been seen dropping sticks or stones on hunters from trees, just to cause a distraction.
These birds aren’t just smart—they’re calculating.
