inside the brain of the world's brightest bird
2016
A research team in New Caledonia follow crows in aviaries and in the wild to track their intelligence.

Crow smarts

inside the brain of the world's brightest bird
Join the crow scientist Dr. Gavin Hunt and his team in New Caledonia, a beautiful Pacific island, as they investigate the mysteries of crow smarts. How do New Caledonian crows learn to use and make tools? Is it possible that crows are improving tool technology and passing improvements to future generations - an achievement believed to be unique to humans? Where is this tool use driving the crow brain? And what can all this tell us about how intelligence evolves? And while we're on the subject of crows...why do they eat the eyeballs of dead things?.
