Birds of the family Crow family are famously intelligent animals that make complex calls to express a variety of clear information about danger, food, territory, identity, location, and emotions. They also often mimic natural and man-made sounds, such as the sound of flowing water and cars
Conrad Lorenz, austria's Nobel laureate in physiology or medicine, once cared for a small-billed crow. One day, the crow, who had not been seen for a long time, returned home with a serious injury to his foot. Lorenz quickly inspected the crow's wounds for himself, and to the scientists' shock, the crow actually said in German, "The trap caught."
Other crows also speak. Magpies say "hello" like crows and can often repeat their names. Mr. Ted Turner, the founder of CNN, the largest in the United States, once kept a magpie as a pet. The magpie, named "Harry," could also speak, and it later lived at the Bear's Tooth Nature Center in Redroche, Montana. We had talked to Harry, but no matter what we said, Harry just said," no, no, no.
According to people at the Nature Center, Mr Turner later abandoned the magpie on the grounds that it was too wild and aggressive, which is indeed a big reason why wild pets are difficult to keep. But we also suspect that Magpie Harry may be at odds with the communications tycoon's ideas, and no one wants their pet to say "no, no, no" to himself. Esther Woolfson is a British woman dedicated to bird rehabilitation, and she has a pet magpie named Spike. She used to talk to Spike, but most of the time it was Woolfson. Sometimes, when Spike wasn't in sight, Woolfson would call out its name. At this point, Spike would respond from a hidden place: "What's the matter?" ”
There is also a story of a raven and an emperor in history. Octavian, a famous figure in world history, was the son of Julius Caesar the Great of the Roman Empire, who defeated the combined forces of Mark Antony and Cleopatra VII in Akto in Akto. Octavian triumphantly returned to Rome, becoming the first emperor of the new empire and receiving a new name, "Augustus". The Italian philosopher and historian Lambier Mace Robbie Uus held important positions in the administration of the empire, and in his 5th-century book Saturnalia, he recorded augustus' meeting with the talking raven. It is said that Augustus met a man holding a raven while marching triumphantly through the streets of Rome. The raven opened his mouth to congratulate him on his great victory in Akto: "Long live the victory of Caesar!" Augustus was overjoyed and spent a huge sum of money to buy the talking raven. Later, a friend of the rich raven owner revealed a secret to the emperor that he had actually trained two ravens. The second raven was brought over, only to hear it cry, "Long live Anthony's victory!" ”
Obviously, the bird tamer is scheming, and he can make a lot of money no matter who wins this big battle. The Emperor was amused and ordered that the money be divided between the two men. The Emperor's reward led many to train the birds to speak, and soon the Emperor bought talking parrots and magpies, who, along with the ravens, faithfully paid homage to the Emperor. Interestingly, a poor shoemaker also raised a raven and taught it to pay homage to the emperor. But the raven seemed to be very stupid, always silent, which often made the shoemaker lament, "Oh, my efforts and money have been wasted!" Finally, the raven learned to pay homage to the Emperor, but when the shoemaker gave it to Augustus, the Emperor refused, telling the shoemaker that there were already many such birds in his family. Hearing this bad news, the raven suddenly said, "Hey, my efforts and money were in vain!" The emperor was taken aback, and then laughed and bought the shrewd raven at the highest price.
The ravens, which live on the Tower of London, are perhaps the most famous and concerned birds in the world. The ravens here are well cared for, and they are cared for by a special army soldier led by the British Royal "Raven Officer". Because the presence of these ravens in the Tower of London is closely related to the fate of the British Empire. Every day, the ravens roam freely in the square on the edge of the Tower of London, interacting with a large number of tourists from all over the world. In fact, ravens are able to learn from humans, and they learn very quickly. A raven was seen landing on the shoulder of a tourist who was eating lunch, and tourists certainly did not want to have lunch with the raven. At this time, the raven whispered, "Go to the path." The tourist was startled, and while the visitor turned his head, the raven had quickly taken away his lunch box.
