Hello everyone! Today’s post is about one of the most intelligent animals in the animal kingdom, the raven. The Raven Their intelligence gives them the ability to be one of the most versatile birds in existence. Like parrots, ravens also have the ability to mimic the noises they hear including speech. Here’s a video that shows this off. Even though a flock of ravens is known as an “unkindness”, ravens have been seen to console each other after one loses a fight and even the victim and aggressor affiliate with each other afterwards. Ravens are also very playful birds, rolling down hills or taunting other animals. - Daniel
