Brb reading the entire series before Spring Break is over to terrify my students.
And I love too Be still, my indelible friend That love soon might end You are unbreaking And be known in its aching Though quaking Shown in this shaking Though crazy Lately of my wasteland, baby That's just wasteland, baby
this really happened, too, some kids didn't believe him, so he wrote the name, and added : "I can also describe in very great detail how exactly they died, I'll do that for the next one if you don't stay quiet."
Aurora says, "Tharvis, why are you always breaking things?!" Artemis says, "You are so high maintenance, Tharvis, gosh." Tecton says, "It's still your fault, Tharvis."
How these studies claim to advance legitimate inferences about the relative intelligence of a species to our own based on the observed behavior of 6 individuals put in unusual situations that have little to do with crow life is kind of silly but okay.
"And in a related study, one designed to evaluate human cognition, six human
researchers were given a series of tests after a brief training period
during which the crows noted rapid learning. The researchers completed 2
out of 4 tasks, including building tools to fish a worm out of a hole
and completing a complicated puzzle in order to obtain a food reward.
However, they failed two more challenging tasks, one involving
identifying from a series of aerial photographs the field which
contained the most worms, and another in which each researcher was
antagonized by a crow and prompted to recognize its face from a line-up.
According to the authors, results indicate that despite their lack of
awareness of their surroundings, human beings possess a sophisticated
capacity for problem solving, rivaling that of a four month old crow."
