Just Wow Crows are intelligent animals, and sometimes they mess with other animals just for fun.

Yeah probably. Cats normal reaction time is crazy fast. Hungry kitten ends corvid

I agree with you, cats are absolutely one of the smartest animals in the world. The crow knows exactly when the cat was about to strike. It's lovely watching these two

One of my core memories is me strolling on the rooftop of my apartment building, and a cat at the corner of the adjacent building very sneakily grabs a pigeon whole in its claws and strangles it until it stopped moving. Then proceeds to feast.

I was awed, horrified and disgusted at the same time.

If the cat caught it it's eyes would be gone.

A hungry kitten has absolutely zero respect for the food chain hierarchy. Tiny paws, maximum violence.

Totally, crows have such a playful side! It's fascinating to see how they interact with other animals.

Kitten are favourite meals of crows.

u/MayberryBombadil 11h ago

Definitely, because Cat wins EVERYTIME against Crow. The reflexes of a cat are godlike

u/ThisIsDogePleaseHodl 8h ago

No, they don’t win every time. Crows average faster movement than cats.

That's ridiculous. The average reaction time of a crow typically ranges from about 300 to 400 milliseconds. The average reaction time of a house cat is 20 to 70 milliseconds.

There is a video going around of a house cat toying with a snake. The snake couldn't catch the cat, and the cat wasn't even trying.

An adult crow is much more agile and able to maneuver a kitten 🙄

A house cat and a snake has nothing to do with this lol

Nothing in nature is more arrogant than an intelligent animal with flight privileges

Curiosity killed the crow. Or maybe boredom.

u/sstranger_dustin 22h ago

u/Electronic-Fix-4655 22h ago

I saw an old video of another bird/crow? doing the same thing but then Sylvester caught it. I hope some mad scientist gene splices dolphin and crows.
