- But in the 1960s, neurologist Stanley Cobb found that birds have a part in the forebrain, called the hyperstraiatum, that allows them to perform synonymous functions, and that ravens have among the largest brains of any birds as well as a relatively high number of brain cells.

Apr 26, 2016 · A new study suggests that ravens can be as clever as chimpanzees, despite having much smaller brains, indicating that rather than the size of the brain, the neuronal density and the...

Oct 24, 2022 · Ravens have proportionally more neurons in the pallial structures than in the rest of the brain and this ratio is higher than it is in the macaque. The same holds if we compare ravens to bird species that are less associated with higher cognition, such as chickens.
Apr 26, 2016 · Ravens, New Caledonian crows and jackdaws parallel great apes in motor self-regulation despite smaller brains. Overriding motor impulses instigated by salient perceptual stimuli represent a fundamental inhibitory skill.
Sep 25, 2020 · Part of the cause for derision is that the mantle, or pallium, of the bird brain lacks the obvious layering that earned the mammalian pallium its “cerebral cortex” label. However, birds, and particularly corvids (such as ravens), are as cognitively capable as monkeys (1) and even great apes (2).

Ravens have a large number of brain cells in one of the largest brains of any bird: Beyond explaining how and why ravens act as they do, it’s how this innate intelligence manifests itself in behavior that makes these birds fascinating to observe.

Jul 29, 2023 · As an example, ravens have the same number of pallial neurons (~1.2 million) as a capuchin monkey, even though the capuchin monkey brain is fourfold heavier . Because neurons are the processing units of the brain, this unusually high neuron count likely contributes to corvid intelligence .
