They do not pose any danger to us unless we get close to their nest. They are robust defenders for their young ones and attack the perceived predators. There are, however, no reports of serious injuries received by humans in such self-defense attacks by ravens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"do-ravens-attack-humans\"><\/span>Do Ravens attack humans?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, ravens can attack humans if they are perceived as a threat. It is recommended not to go near a raven\u2019s nest to avoid such an attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"do-ravens-have-teeth\"><\/span>Do Ravens have teeth?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No, ravens do not have teeth like all other birds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-are-ravens-afraid-of\"><\/span>What are Ravens afraid of?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ravens are afraid of cats, wolves, foxes, and other ground predators when they scavenge on land. Large hawks, owls, and eagles are also a danger for ravens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-do-ravens-attack-humans\"><\/span>Why do ravens attack humans?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ravens attack humans when they perceive them as a threat. These birds are extremely protective of their young ones and will attack any being coming close to their nest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"do-ravens-kill-other-birds\"><\/span>Do ravens kill other birds?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, ravens kill other birds by attacking their nest in groups. They feed on fledglings (baby birds) and eggs from these nests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"where-do-ravens-sleep-at-night\"><\/span>Where do Ravens sleep at night?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ravens sleep in their giant communal units called roosts. Hundreds or even thousands of ravens gather in woodland at night to sleep together on a suitable tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"who-is-more-intelligent-between-a-raven-and-a-crow\"><\/span>Who is more intelligent between a raven and a crow?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Considering raven vs. crow intelligence, both ravens and crows are equally intelligent birds as proven by many scientific studies conducted specifically to test their cognizance. Along with solving puzzles, they are good at mimicking sounds as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-raven-or-crow-called-a-blackbird\"><\/span>Is raven or crow called a blackbird?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Neither a raven nor a crow is commonly called a blackbird. Great-tailed grackle, a bird native to North and South America, is referred to as a blackbird in common language. The biggest raven vs. crow vs. blackbird difference lies in the family they belong to. While ravens and crows share the same family, Corvidae, a blackbird belongs to the Icteridae family. You can easily distinguish a blackbird from the other two birds by looking at its tail which is almost as long as its body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"comparing-the-strengths-and-weaknesses-of-a-raven-and-a-crow-for-differentiation-between-the-two-birds\"><\/span>Comparing the strengths and weaknesses of a raven and a crow for differentiation between the two birds<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"strengths-of-ravens\"><\/span>Strengths of ravens<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>They are smart and intelligent birds that can pre-plan tasks like humans (Ref.1).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"weaknesses-of-ravens\"><\/span>Weaknesses of ravens<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>They are not comfortable in urban settlements and, therefore, miss on many feeding opportunities.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"strengths-of-crows\"><\/span>Strengths of crows<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>They are smart and intelligent birds and are good at remembering humans they interact with.
