The fable was based on actual observation that was  confirmed by recent scientific studies that found that crows, indeed, do  just the same as the crow in the fable when presented with a similar  situation. Crows are remarkably intelligent creatures who demonstrate  complex skills like the ability to manufacture and use tools, remember  human faces, and use individual experience to predict, plan and adapt to  their environment. Crows are found to bend wires into hooks to acquire  hard to reach food, crack open walnuts by dropping them into pavements  from a height, and even memorize the schedule of the garbage truck so  that could pick up some tasty morsels. Food isn’t the only motivation factor that drive crows to  adaptability. Crows also demonstrate intelligence when building nests,  using whatever materials that are available to construct them. A typical  nest is composed of interlocking twigs, often recycled from the old  nest, and pieces of wires of various lengths and thickness, gathered  from the surrounding, to strengthen the nest structure. Tokyo residents  have observed that crows in the city have learned to use coat hangers  instead. In such a large city, there are few trees, so the  natural materials that crows need to make their nests are scarce. As a  result, the crows will often steal hangers from the people who live in  apartments nearby, and carefully assemble them into intricate nests. The  completed nests almost look like works of art. Nests built from  hangers were also discovered in other Japanese cities. In Fukuoka City,  the Jungle Crow would often make nests atop power lines during the  breeding season that could cause large blackouts due to short  circuiting. The Kyushu Electric power company actually has "crow  patrols" that search out and destroy hanger nests on their power grid. <img src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/--Qf9FWTEJ7g/U131eAk6czI/AAAAAAAAx4M/raFv2IoznoU/crow-nest-hanger-2%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-JfVQdvOOSTI/U131gGNn16I/AAAAAAAAx4U/BYJVIreWPe0/crow-nest-hanger-1%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-WXecQHNTyvg/U131hVh05TI/AAAAAAAAx4c/Z5TIcrVHxVA/crow-nest-hanger-4%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-g5J2YjyhxsU/U131i7ebTcI/AAAAAAAAx4k/kSZeX-7eaFI/crow-nest-hanger-5%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-uolK9k9gwCQ/U131kWBTo0I/AAAAAAAAx4s/CW8cjiT8uqw/crow-nest-hanger-6%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-hq8ytzSC6II/U131lxPsA0I/AAAAAAAAx40/nFm2c8kIIas/crow-nest-hanger-7%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-cs9S8yDWjrM/U131ncSYaRI/AAAAAAAAx48/e-U158dJNYg/crow-nest-hanger-8%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> </blockquote>
