The crows of New Caledonia ( Corvus moneduloides ) are known for their ability to create and use tools.
To be able to observe their activity in the natural environment, Christian Rutz and his colleagues at Oxford University (UK) have placed tiny cameras weighing 14g under the tail feathers of 18 New Caledonia crow. They obtained the image when they were digging the soil to find food or fly with the herd.
Researchers note that crows often spend a lot of time on the ground looking for food. They use the roots of some grass species to make soil exploration tools. They also use stems to catch larvae in the trunk.
Although there are many branches and stems around them, crows often carry their own tools. Researchers explain that they like to keep a good item instead of searching.
