They found about 200 dead crows in an area near me, and there was concern that they may have died from Avian Flu.
A Bird Pathologist was called in to examine the remains of all the crows, and he confirmed the problem was definitely NOT Avian Flu, to everyone's relief.
However, he did determined that 98% of the crows had been killed by impact with trucks, and only 2% were killed by car impact.
The State then hired an Ornithological Behaviourist to determine the disproportionate percentages for truck versus car kill.
The Ornithological Behaviourist determined the cause in short order.
When crows eat road kill, they always set-up a look-out Crow in a nearby tree to warn of impending danger.
His conclusion was that the lookout crow could say "Cah", but he could not say "Truck."

| | Now that was funny. One attaboy for you. But the pair of hawks are no longer a pair and the lone remainder, $ex unknown is out there alone. I know Doves mate for a lifetime. Don't know if hawks do too. If this was a buzzard, I'd have said hot dog. But hawks don't hurt anyone and I think they are majestic specimens. Mark |
