Turn on the sound and watch this raven mimic a human voice. This is Mischief the white-necked raven. These ravens are found throughout eastern and southern Africa, and are common near human habitation. Like all members of the Corvidae family, ravens are extremely intelligent. They use tools to get food if necessary, and can even mimic human speech! (Source)

Okay but that’s not some Gilbert Gottfried ‘RAAAK POLLY WANNA CRACKER’ this raven actually sounds like a person what the fuck
I’m in Alaska and trust me, Ravens are hella smart! I’ve seen a crew of them opening up luggage in someone’s truck bed and having a great time strewing it all over the place. And there’s one near my home that does a spot on monkey impression. I have no idea where they learned it but I know those ravens get a good laugh every time I come sprinting out of the house all “WTF?! IS THAT A MONKEY?!”
