With climate change appearing to expand the skeeters’ range, according to recent research in Science Advances , the birds have fewer safe places to hide. Further, a new scientific study suggests that these crows may have an advantage over other avians—like their cousins, the New Caledonian Crows , they are revealed to be tool users.
