      I love this story. Here's my story of random connection to nature.
      My parents built a pond, then had it stocked. I would go out to the pond every morning it was nice weather and dangle my bare feet into the water. All of the little fish nearby would take off like fish do. One day, a tiny bluegill came up to me. I just watched it. He would come back daily getting nearer my feet each time(maybe they smelled good). One day I flicked an ant into the water and the fish ate it. I fed him many times after that. He would just be super near my feet(I think it liked the heat). We hung out for over 2 years. As soon as I would approach, the fish would swim towards me like, while the rest swam away. A few times I got other people out there with me, but never seen the fish. Never. Nobody really believed me, but i didn't mind. It was a cool experience.

    I had a pet crow when I was a child. I hand raised it from a small bird. It was orphaned when a storm knocked down the nest. Just one bird survived. He stayed with me just like a dog would do. Very smart bird. I lived in the country but my school was only about 1/2 mile away. I usually walked. The crow would hear the dismissal bell and fly to meet me each day. It was a very dedicated companion.

    I befriended a crow who later brought its mate along as well. They'd crow in the early hours or at night, and being a nightowl insomniac I'd greet them back. I'd hear them as I walked throughout the city and I'd whistle back, they'd come and find me and follow me around. They saw I was collecting feathers, so they started giving me feathers whenever I was feeding them. At first I was just happy at the gesture, amazed, then I stopt taking the ugly and dirty feathers. They ended up bringing me swan-feathers, all kinds of feathers I've never seen. They had a hatchling, they were teaching it I was a source of food.
    The crowling would croak in a much more distinct way as it was guided around by the parents, as they tried to show it how I gave them food and how they gave me feathers. It learned quickly, within a month it was outside my window sitting like a hunched hatchling does crowing at me for food, having brought me a ugly feather for the first time. As a depressed alcoholic at the time, and still fighting, having lost all my friends in the process it actually teared me up because it was the closest to a truly new "friend" I'd had in years. Whilst I also felt like I was helping someone learn.
    One morning I walk out and the young crows headless body lays outside my apartmentblocks (inner yard) door. The neighbours cat had caught it. Being too young it hadn't learned well enough to stay away from the cats, and the cats themselves had had ample time learning to chase crows from the parents that had befriended me. I didn't see the parent crows for weeks, when I finally did it was they who recognized me and angrily crowed at me for two apartmentblocks until I entered my apartment. I thought about the young crow and how he'd brought me the most beautiful of his feathers with his dead corpse that I didn't touch, how he'd never learn to bring any others. And I wept.

    My dog, years ago, befriended a crow. She would put some of her food on the window ledge every morning and the crow would come and eat it and entertain her. I have zero idea how this happened, at first, I thought a crow was trying to get in my kitchen or attack my dog, I watched them for a few days and realized they had a routine. It was amazing. After my dog passed away, the crow would still show up. So, for about a year, I would still buy things to feed the crow every morning, then the crow stopped coming. It really helped me through the loss of my best friend! They're just remarkable critters, I live in Canada and they're freaking huge birds here and all iridescent-esque black and so beautiful. I don't recommend every making a wild animal a pet, but I bet a crow would make a great pet.

There have also been observations of crows playing with wolf cubs and it's theorised that crows form special relationships with individual wolves maybe that explains how your dog befriended a crow

    As a child, I had a crow for about 5 years. I nursed it when it fell out of the nest as a naked chick. After raising it and learning it to get it own food, I started taking it further away from home and for longer periods and left it in one of the parks nearby. In the beginning, Jan followed me home and came back inside, after a while he only came back when it got dark and in the end, he lived outside but often popped back in to say hello. It took him a year to really be independent and love in a group that I could still follow but he refused to land on my arm any longer. I was sad and happy at the same time; I lost my pet crow but he found a flock to hang out with and live a normal crow's life. Your story is touching!

They understand they are aware and they understand that other animals around them are also self driven, but more importantly, they understand those minds are separate from their own. I would read up on the Theory of mind to understand more. 'Most animals' don't fit the criteria to have a self aware mind.

    • @SimonWoodburyForget
      @SimonWoodburyForget 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@davidlean1060 The problem is that's a very loose way to put it. The primary difference between humans and other animals is culture, and nothing having to do with self-awareness or identity. The thing which makes you a identifiable agent is the distance and time required for information to travel between you and someone else, being limited by your mouth and ears is significant enough that you notice the difference. If you for example split the brain in half, you'd experience that same effect, having each side of your body act as an individual seperate from the other, with each their own personality and each their own self-driven motivation to do something.
      Most animals use plenty of the patterns you've mentioned here. The primary trouble is when you start using words like "understand". It doesn't work because in the context of self awareness, you cannot actually show that you've understood whether you're self-aware or not. The word you're looking for is "recognition" or something else of a similar nature. You use the word "understand" when talking about humans, as a method of reflecting what you've learned and can do by yourself. You say that you "understand how to drive", but you don't say you "understand you're self aware" because that's just nonsense: what does it even mean to claim to have understood you're self aware? A computer could claim they understand to be self aware, but how do they prove that they've understood it? If you can't show this, then you can't show that.
      The point is that no, I can absolutely not tell you whether I "understand that I'm self aware", at least not in any meaningful way. There's no way for me to know whether I'm self-driven anymore then a rock is self-driven.

    I had a "pet" duck who was born with some kind of deformity to her foot. She decided that scavenging in the wild was too difficult since her foot didn't allow her to swim properly and so she went and found humans to feed her. She did still have nests in the wild with her mates (first guy disappeared after a year, no idea why, but she found a new guy who she stayed with for four years). The baby daddies taught the babies how to live in the wild so even though she would bring them to us when it was her turn to get the groceries, none of them came back after they grew up. The males almost never showed up on their own but they'd sometimes come with her. We got her a water bowl and fed her lettuce, the peels of whatever veggies we were cooking, seeds, and other healthy snacks. Weirdly, she liked to end every meal by flipping her water bowl over. No idea why. She'd sit there and drink from it all meal and then when she was full she'd flip it upside down and fly off. Kinda makes you look at dogs and horses and stuff and wonder if their ancestors were disabled.

      For dogs most likely wolfs just scanvanged on human left overs and lost some fear of them. But the best tamed wolfes were the ones who got took home and cared for as puppys because the parents died (probably hunted by humans) and grew up with humans. Over decades humans kept tamed wolfes for protection and help at hunting and so domesticcated them and they were bred for specific traits that made them more able for protection and hunting. A small wolf/dog with extra short legs would seem disabled in nature but it is very use full for hunting foxes and other animals living in underground tunels. So the ancestors were not disabled but modern dog breeds are theoraticaly disabled. And even practicly. Some dog breeds have health problems because of their specific breed type traits like Bulldogs, Pugs and Boxers distinct short nose makes them prone to all sorts of respiratory issues

      They are super cautious so give them plenty of space. Better to look away, at least cover one eye so they don't feel preyed upon.

      Nice! We have crows where I live, and it takes me like all summer to get them to trust me, but then winter comes, and they leave (they migrate somewhere warmer, because they can't survive our winters here in SK, Canada), and the next spring, the crows that show up are not the same crows, I'm sure, because they don't trust me, and I have to start the whole process over again.
      The reason I'm sure that the crows that come each spring are not the same ones, is, first, I really really don't think crows come back to the exact same tree in the exact same neighbourhood in the exact same city, and, also, they don't know or remember me, and crows have such astounding memories, if they were the same crows I think they'd remember.
      I sure wish I lived somewhere where the crows stay all year round!

    Watching this,… bring memories about my grandmother and the love she had for animals.
    In the Dominican Republic, my grandmother raised a crow until it could fly and was able to be by itself. She let it fly free. It was a house in the countryside with a lot trees in the backyard. The crow would come everyday to her, to be on her shoulder, lap and the crow would let her grab/hold it, she would caress the crow and feed it. She would even whistle and the crow would come if it was near by. All that just with her.
    Then my grandmother passed away. But the crow would still come looking for my grandmother everyday, making sounds and nothing. Gradually, the crow would come less often but still looking for her. My grandmother loved animals.

    Berlin crows really are just something special. I have a pair of crow friends that live in the tree across from my window. They come and visit me several times a day for treats but also sometimes just to talk! It's always a special thing when they bring their babies to my window. Every winter, one of the babies will hang around. This year's winter baby has become very close to me. She often comes to my window just to talk and has started peeking her head around the corner, very interested in what I'm doing inside. She makes a "wub wub wub" sound at me and I "wub wub wub" back at her. This year, they all disappeared for 5 days and I was absolutely destroyed. I know they're wild birds and some day they will go away, but that thought makes me sad. When my Lady returned, I actually sat on the floor sobbing to her how much I missed her and how I was so happy to see her again. I had been so worried she was hurt. Having wild animal friends is hard, but so so rewarding.

    Absolutely fascinating to watch. Crows truly are a majestic species and so very intelligent! Thank you for sharing this footage with us all. ❤

    I am a dogperson, raised and trained dogs and help people with behavioral issues. Crows have even higher intelligence. And incredible memory and sight. There's a reason there's alot of stories about birds from the crowfamily including magpies and ravens. Also ones of vindication, as crows are extremely protective and have been known to defend against people they've seen mistreat others, use violence etc.
    They are respected mythological creatures and messengers of things to come in Norse cultures. In others they represent a link to ancestors.
    I have incredible respect for these animals and experiences of my own.

      Not a bird fan since most of them are idiots and flying rats but there are exception like crows, hawks, owls who are actually useful to us all.
      A friend told me the other day, a hawk dove down and grabbed a rat almost the same size as the hawk, it was about 3 meters behind him and flew right above his head carrying the rat. Everything happened really fast. He as a human didn't even realized there was a rat so close to him while a bird from who knows what height spotted it and dove down. It was magnificent he said.

      @@werkgalaxy Birds are not idiots, they’re busy. Very busy feeding themselves and their offspring. We think they’re stupid when they land in the road but we fail to realize the bird has spotted an insect there.

      @@arthurshat7793 Most birds are actually mentally challenged you like it or not. It's a fact.
      Few examples: They build their nest right in front of their predator which eats them.
      They build crap nests on places they should not from which eggs and-or their baby birds fall out and die. Or even get stuck in it.
      The little birds also are dumb enough to try to fly when they don't even have their feathers grown or small enough.
      But if makes you feel any better we humans have some questionable mental cases too in certain locations where some people are lucky to be alive which do dumb things and-or die eventually before it's time.
