<span><font size=3D"2" face=3D"Calibri" color=3D"black"><span style=3D"=
font-size: 11pt;">The RCMP found over 2000
dead crows on Alberta
hwys recently, and there was concern that they may have died
from Avian Flu. A
Pathologist examined the remains of all the crows, and, to
everyone's relief,
confirmed the problem was NOT Avian Flu. The cause of death
appeared to be from
vehicular impacts. However, during analysis it was noted that
varying colours
of paints appeared on the bird's beaks and claws. By analysing
these paint
residues it was found that 98% of the crows had been killed by
impact with
motorbikes, while only 2% were killed by cars.<br />
<br />
The RCMP then hired an Ornithological Behaviourist to
determine if there was a
cause for the disproportionate percentages of motorbike kills
versus car kills.
The Ornithological Behaviourist quickly concluded that when
crows eat road
kill, they always have a look-out crow to warn of danger. They
discovered that
while all the lookout crows could shout "Cah", not a single
one could
shout "bike"<br />
