Krähen – Nature is watching us

Crows and ravens have accompanied and watched us since the beginning of human history. They have seen our first steps in an upright walk and heard our first articulated sounds. They have conquered new continents with us and experienced all our wars and battles. They celebrate weddings with us, feed on the remnants of romantic picnics and wild parties, and make themselves at home on the rubbish tips of the megacities or as companions of the refuse collectors.

Crows and ravens follow us because we are the best hunters, the cruellest warriors, the biggest exploiters, the most wasteful consumers. There is always enough to eat in our vicinity. Almost everywhere where people live, there are also corvids. And there are more and more of them!
