Eager to learn more about Animal science and research!

@RUlchak Solid counterargument. I discuss similar things in my project about crows and their nuisance to farmers

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

@SophiaGreen1210 Love the color scheme and little graphics, makes it very viewer friendly!

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

@RUlchak Sad and unfortunate

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

@RUlchak Haha. Very simple and digestible but gets a good point across

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

@stliah Love your infographic! Very informative

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

@NapaliPaladino UCSB could use this for dead week

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

@NapaliPaladino Same! Some birds are so smart its incredible

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

@NapaliPaladino Aw very cute. I could use a therapy dog right now to help with finals

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

@RUlchak Sounds like you have an interesting advocacy project

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

Crows have an exceptional ability to recognize human faces and consequently determine if they are a threat or not. They are also able to share this information in their societies efficiently #whatIlearnedinWR60

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

Although there is a limit on crow hunting imposed by the federal government, if they are causing “any nuisance”the government offers them no protection... #whatIlearnedinWR60

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

I didn't know how common and popular crow hunting was and how many websites are dedicated to discussing it #whatIlearnedinWR60

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

I didn't know bird populations, a large majority being corvids were at risk from disease, especially the West Nile virus #whatIlearnedinWR60

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

Learning about corvid intelligence is definitely going to stick with me. I knew they could use tools but I didn't know they were that crafty! #whatIlearnedinWR60

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

There are many options for nonlethal deterrents on crows such as lasers, clappers, and frightening objects. There are definitely alternatives to shooting crows! #39canimals

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

There are many great organizations such as theAmerican Bird Conservancy or the Audubon Society which advocate for corvids and birds alike #39canimals

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

The West Nile virus is very deadly for bird populations - Since 1999 the West Nile virus has caused a 45% decline in regional crow populations #39canimals

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

There are a lot of movies and tv shows which negatively stigmatize crows. Alfred Hitchcock's movie the birds is a good example #39canimals

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

Exciting research by scientists at Cornell reveals some corvids have been seen to be able to recover from the West Nile virus #39canimals

[kuba naum @Writing60_naum]

San Diego Zoo is doing some great work vaccinating/treating corvids and other birds #39canimals
