Corvids...
rtxn, (edited ) If I’ve learned anything from Stargate, such knowledge leads directly to the ability to build self-propelled autonomous space mines.
Bishma, 
I’m really glad I wasn’t the only person who thought about that episode.
Transporter_Room_3, 
Indeed. raises eyebrow
Spendrill, Not only that, corvids understand the concept of zero fucks given.
MotoAsh, They also understand social order and merc crows that are excessively rude thieves and whatnot. It’s a bit brutal but it’s indicative of individual identity and longer term memory.
stebo02, 
if they start understanding complex numbers I will get scared
emptyother, Then they are already smarter than the average Mangalore.

hakunawazo, (edited ) They are not the smartest guys out there, but at least they managed to kill the main bad guy of the movie:

don, Now a real killer, when he picked up the ZF-1, he would have immediately asked about the little red button on the bottom of the gun.
catharso, 
i really enjoyed the mangalorian though. it had weak moments but otherwise was a solid show.
Bishma, And if my knowledge of history is worth anything, we didn’t learn about zero until the 70’s
asg101, Alex the African Grey parrot showed us that he had an understanding of “none” 30 years ago. Good to see Corvid scientists catching up.
corrupts_absolutely, makes zero sense
corrupts_absolutely, i meant zero makes sense
Rolando, I bet a crow would know what to do with that information.
ericisshort, But would a jackdaw?
Westcoastdg, Here’s the thing…
Kolanaki, 
I once saw a crow look both ways before walking across the street and I thought “Wow. What a dumbass, he could just fly over it and not have to worry about cars.”
Kerandir, 😂😂😂😂
anton, I once saw a human look both ways before walking across the street and I thought “Wow. What a dumbass, he could just walk a mile to the unterpass and not have to worry about cars.”
sour, 
is savings energy
MNByChoice, Cool. I have seen wild turkeys do this and in a crosswalk. It is really cool.
I have not seen them using the button to request the “walking man” yet.
ALostInquirer, Do you think they might use the button sooner if the symbol was a walking turkey?
clueless_stoner, 
Only one way to know.
force, (edited ) Birds are too powerful to need to use a beg button
