recently i learned that crows and ravens have a baffling habit of sneaking up on other animals and pulling on their tails
the behavior seems to be relatively universal among various species of crows and ravens across the world
they seem to do it with anything they can find that has a tail, ranging from something as small and harmless as squirrels to something as large and deadly as eagles
i have absolutely no idea what their motives are, other than to be mischievous and cute
Ravens/Crows are awesome.
Muahahaha. Yep. That’s me.
Parrots do this too. It’s because parrots and corvids are brats.
No, seriously. They do it because they’re brats. Entire species of feathered flying jackasses. They smarter they are, the brattier they get.
Birds are jerks, you guys. It’s the flying. They know they can pick up and sail away where you can’t get them, once they’ve pissed you off. And if it sounds kind of like they’re laughing at you? They really are.
But they’re awfully cute jerks.
