A
Wearing a caveman mask, Dr.Jhn Marzluff walks acrss the campus at the University f Washingtn in Seattle. Crws (乌鸦) circle and squawk (尖叫), diving at him and ging away.
Beneath the mask, he smiles. Days befre he and his students, wearing caveman masks, tapped them and placed clred plastic bands n their legs. Then they released the unhappy birds. When the researchers wandered arund campus withut the masks, the crws they had caught and banded did nt react t them. But when the same humans walked by while wearing the masks, the crws sclded ludly and dived at their “enemies”．
At first, nly the banded birds reacted aggressively t the peple in masks. But in later tests mre and mre crws jined in, and even when the banded birds were nt arund. “Crws think and dream, fight and play, reasn and take risks，” he says. “Their antics cnfuse us.”
This led him t study hw crws' brains wrk. He and his students wre ne type f mask as they captured crws and brught them int the lab, training them t link that face with danger. Then a different kind f mask fr mre psitive activities, such as feeding and caring. Then he wrked with scientists at the university wh scan animal brains t see which parts f a crw's brain d certain tasks. Surprisingly, the scientists fund that when the crw saw the “danger” mask, ne part f its brain became active. When the crw saw the “feeding and caring” mask, a different part f its brain lit up. The team has shwn that crws use the same parts f their brains fr recgnizing what humans d—smething that was nt knwn befre!
Mre than 10 years after the first mask experiment, campus crws still scld the “cavemen”. Crws als recgnize peple wh are kind t them. Crws are always watching us and they remember.
