- If you work on corvid ecology, behaviour, cognition, or conservation, this might be useful for you 👇 I’ve just published CORVIDATA in Scientific Data 🐦 doi.org/10.1038/s415... (1/4)
- Corvids (crows, ravens, jays,..) are famous for their cognitive abilities, vocal communication, social and ecological flexibility. But pulling together comparable species-level data has often been a major bottleneck for cross-species work (2/4)
- CORVIDATA aims to help with exactly that. It’s a curated dataset covering 135 corvid species worldwide, integrating: • morphology • ecology • sociality • life-history traits (3/4)
- My hope is that CORVIDATA can support: • large-scale comparative analyses • theory-driven tests of ecological & social hypotheses • conservation-relevant trait-based approaches The dataset is openly available, and intended as a starting point (4/4) #Corvids #ComparativeCognition #BehaviouralEcologyJan 6, 2026 10:40
