Any bird who lives primarily in the water is dumb as shit. They have unlimited protection above and around them, so they have zero adaptive pressure to put anything into their intelligence. Land birds have a lot to worry about so their brains are approaching human levels of intellect.

If the land birds get any smarter they're going to have to start worrying about a whole lot more. Like taxes, or rent.

I mean some birds have been shown exchanging money for goods and services, so it's not that far off.

Oh god no, someone needs to warn the birds about capitalism.

Birds are very good at stealing things, so I think it's too late for that

[-] Rodeo@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

Stealing requires the belief that other people can own things. They are simply taking what is rightfully theirs. Birds are billionaires.
