OP continuously proves throughout the forums that humans are, in fact, just as dumb as they appear to be.
Disagree, slightly. :sneaky:

no
we are dumb because we are not aware of it and thus declare it as not existing
the tower of london is supposed to have a giant flock of crows
Another story concerns the two ravens named "James Crow" and "Edgar Sopper". James Crow was a much-loved and long-lived raven. After noticing the commotion surrounding the other raven's death, Edgar Sopper decided he could "play dead" in order to bring more attention to himself. His trick was so convincing that the Ravenmaster fully believed that Edgar Sopper had died. When the Ravenmaster picked up the "corpse", Edgar bit the man's finger and "flapped off croaking huge raven laughs".[19]
In 1990 a chaplain named Norman Hood died in his chamber on the Tower grounds. Former Assistant Ravenmaster Tom Trent has reported that the ravens appeared to be aware of the death, for they soon gathered on the Tower Green near the chapel, called out, and then became quiet, as though to pay their respects. The idea should not be discounted, as corvids have been widely reported to hold "funerals," in which they mourn and then cluster around a dead crow in silence.[29]
But they are just crows, right ? NM.
