    I learned how smart they were 60 years ago when I hunted as a kid. They would never let humans get too close at any time—maybe 20-30 yards at best, but when hunting season opened and you walked out towards them with a gun in hand, they took off when you were 150+ yards away. If a shot was fired at some game animal, you didn’t see a crow for hours after.
