They really are more intelligent than humans!

Do the electronics survive after being dropped on rocks?

They are very smart birds.

Corvids are insanely intelligent. They dont just make tools, they construct them from multiple parts. Man and the great Apes are the only other ones to do that. They also communicate complex and abstract information between themselves, few other species can do that.

If only every crow had a lawnmower!

That gentleman is eating crow after than realization.

What’s funny is that the scissors or other special tools you can buy to get those packages open often come in … unopenable clamshell packages.

I claim if NASA had wrapped the spaceship Challenger in that stuff, it would have never fallen apart.

Those packages do have a purpose. As you become older, your ability to curse dwindles. They allow you to maintain it.

I admire an Old Crow myself.

Birdbrain isn’t so bad.

Squirrels are good at it too…

Does that say more about them or less about us……

Get ready for some iMulch.

Assuming that the mower is in forward motion, that “electronic device” is about to be electronic shreds…

The real problem is getting the clamshell packaging off the planet after the electronics have been removed. As if the electronics themselves weren’t enough of a disposal problem.

And, with the fact that a great portion of goods are being custom-delivered by expensive courier (FedEx, UPS, Amazon, etc.), the “protection” offered by clamshell packaging is completely unnecessary. The protection isn’t for the product, it’s for the protection of retailers from consumers.

I have got to get me one of those crows. You ever notice how scarecrows are not packaged in clamshells?

Without even a blowtorch!
