article_snippet: An experiment by the University of Cambridge has proved that members of the crow family, known as corvids, aren’t just among the cleverest birds, members of the crow family, known as corvids, aren’t just among the cleverest birds are smarter than most mammals and can perform tasks that three and four-year-old children have difficulty with.
article_snippet: Scientists said that, while having very different brain structures, both crows and primates use a combination of mental tools, including imagination and the anticipation of possible future events, to solve similar problems.
