Meta-tool use

Recent experiments show that New Caledonian Crows are able to use one tool to affect another to achieve a task, at a level rivalling the best performances seen in primates.[7][8][9]

One such experiment, conducted by the Auckland team, involved putting food in a box out of the crows' reach. They were given a stick too short to reach the food, but they could use this to retrieve a longer stick from another box. The longer stick was then used to retrieve the food. This complex behaviour involved realising that a tool could be used on non-food objects, and suppressing the urge to go directly for the food. It was solved by six of seven birds on the first attempt, and had previously only been observed in primates.

The crows also use tools to investigate potentially dangerous objects.

Wow that spoon/stick is ace. Thanks everyone else for the nice words and the Bristolian wench.

I suppose I just don't post enough because I've been around this board since the Dark Ages and I haven't broken 2k yet.

I hear you. I'm going on three years. And I'm only at 600.

You are a poster whose posts I, for one, enjoy reading, Squid.

It's more than likely your brother will beat you to the 1,000 posts 

More than likely. He joined a few months earlier than me. In fact, he was the one who told me about this forum.

Crow, congrats!  Terrifying spoon.
