    So crows are also capable of stack overflow then? You could make a DOS attack strat out of this!

      The real question is what the logic bomb for humans is. :)

    Crows and parrots are intellectually on the same level as dolphins and great apes. The same cannot be said for some humans.

      It has been argued by some researchers that certain porpoises, lile orcas, may be more intelligent than humans in some metrics, particularly emotional intelligence.

    It would be interesting to find something within real-world behaviour of crows that requires this cognitive ability.
