Summary: A new study highlights crows’ remarkable memory and their ability to hold grudges against humans who threaten them. Researchers observed that crows could remember faces and distinguish between friendly and unfriendly encounters, even warning other crows of perceived threats. This complex social behavior, resembling revenge, adds to the growing evidence of avian intelligence and adaptability in urban environments, challenging previous assumptions about animal cognition.
