Crow snowboarding on Russian roof

[DavidBrown]

I found this will checking out Youtube's new "Pet and Animals" Channel. This is the coolest video of animal play that I have ever seen. A crow (does anybody know the species?) has a piece of plastic and is using it to repeatedly snowboard down the snow on a sloped roof in Russia.

Corvids are amazing.

Hey Zoo JOax, let's discuss.

Excellent! Thank you.
It's a hooded crow.
Just as well it doesn't snow in New Caledonia - their super intelligent crows would be ski-jumping

That´s aaawesome! Corvids are such clever animals and yet so unappreciated by public.

Yay for corvids!! Love that video!

This is one of our magpies playing "keep away" with a shopping list he'd just stolen from us.

Check out this video of crows playing on snow-covered cars. One of them repeatedly sleds down the back window. Sheer joy.
