Irony, if it works great, if it doesn't, oh don't be cranky it was just a joke.

Corvids demonstrate exceptional understanding of the world they inhabit, there are videos of them performing various acts such as using sticks to fetch an object from an otherwise impassable option, and even water displacement.

Thorsson and Karond are the same person, but two accounts. Which makes it weird when we argue with each other, but there is an explanation for that....

Always knew my cats were plotting against me....
The video does nothing to convince me of the intelligence of Hins.

I don't even know if you're joking. Is this sarcasm?

My dog is stupid. He's a big purebred boxer, and he tries to eat everything.
Once he chewed up a door.
Another time he ATE THE CAN of the bitter apple dog repellant. And waved it in everyone's face.

Mine is a purebred british shorthair.
He enjoys sunbathing at 40 Celsius, killing animals in the living room in the most gruesome way possible and being very stupid in general.

Animals exhibit a low cunning. A bit like petty criminals - and Orcs!

Humans too, so I heard, ah yes, we're animals as well.
You better give thanks to every animal and plant and mushroom that nourished you, or it will come back to haunt you!

Humans are not tasty

Most predators if ever hunt a human is beacause of instinct rather than taste, and even then its hard to swallow. If given a choice, a predator would choose other animal instead of us. Many people "survive" shark attacks, in one piece or not, beacuse they just bite a few times for taste, unless they are really hungry. Bah, cockroaches if touhced by a human instantly wash themselves. We are really a disgusting specie *nods*
