    I read recently that scientist in Oregon on pacific highway route 1-5 have discovered around 50 crows dead along a small stretch of highway out there. Apparently all of them have been killed by motorcyclist`s. Checks on the paint left behind on their mangled bodies identify them as motorcycle road kills. Further investigation has looked into the behavior of these intelligent birds & what they discovered has answered their quest for answers.
    Crows are pack hunters and each pack has a "lookout" crow who keeps watch whilst others feed on the dead carrion. Scientist`s have found out the reason for so many motorcycle road kill deaths of this bird is that crows cannot say the word "motorcycle".... they can only say "Caw, Caw"!!!

    Probably Harley kills cuz the crow keeping cavey expects a proper motorcycle to be able to turn a little and go round him. Strange but true.
