'''Giant crows''' are monstrously large cousins of the standard [[crow]].

==Behavior==
 
−
They appear in groups of 5-10 in [[savage]] surroundings, where they are very common (due to having a local population of 30-50), and spend the majority of their time flying around a particular area of the map. Unlike some other [[giant kea|aerial pests]], giant crows are uninterested in carrying away your hard-won [[food]] and [[item]]s, making them much less likely to migrate towards your fortress intentionally.

Giant crows are generally non-aggressive, though due to their size and numbers they can prove dangerous to civilians and livestock when roused. A moderately-skilled [[marksdwarf]] should have little difficulty shooting them out of the sky, and the resultant impact with the ground will leave them incapacitated long enough to finish the job.

−
==Use==
 
−
Slightly larger than your standard [[llama]], giant crows have a respectable pet value and can provide reasonable [[butcher]]ing returns, though there is little to recommend them over many similar animals. They are perhaps best left to roam free for your [[hunter]]s to harvest and your [[military]] [[marksdwarf|marksdwarves]] to practice upon.

Some dwarves [[preference|take a fancy to]] giant crows for their ''intelligence'' as with the cousins of this subgroup previously mentioned.
