Crows Attack Rabbit Nest

- A rabbit placed her nest in my front yard so I put a trail camera over it to watch it. Crows discovered the nest and tried to take one of the babies and the mother tried to defend her babies from them
Wow this video really shows the intelligence of crows. Pay attention at 6:10, one crow intentionally distracts the rabbit while the other goes in for the food.
That's why they're the smartest!!
More intelligent than the one filming, even if he's not behind the camera.
@@stockey and why??
Teamwork
They even do this to distract the bald eagle to get the eagle eggs...
Crows are a predator and are very intelligent. You can bet it did not forget where that rabbit nest was. They will eat a whole nest of baby birds also.
A couple weeks ago they attacked a squirrel nest in my backyard - left when I went out with my camera
@Praetor Xernex The vast majority of information on crows will certainly disagree with you about crows not being predators. An animal does not have to actively hunt prey to be a predator.
They sure are, Crows are actually the 3rd smartest bird in the world…
The crow will absolutely remember where the nest is along with the squirrel. The squirrel is looking for where the baby ran out of. Also if you notice it’s more than one crow attacking the nest. The mother rabbit going to the nest during the day is extremely unusual because of this reason. The mother rabbit will typically only go to the nest once or twice a day and only when it’s dark out, this is to prevent predators from figuring out where the nest is. That is what got the nest discovered.
@@shannonspage9360 Perhaps I missed it, but I didn't see any indication from this video that the mother was actually on the nest prior to the attack. The mother will typically remain within sight or earshot of her nest. It seems to me that the babies were just at that age where they're starting to roam bit by bit, no longer staying concealed under the cover of the nest throughout their day, and it's because of this that initial crow was able to spot their movement.
Wow, the crow was so quick at 1:39 it took me a few watches to realise it successfully snagged one of the babies.
Oh yeah, it was fast!
fail bro
And then it gets away, and mama bun chases him.
Man, rabbits are food for everything else
Rabbits, chipmunks, squirrels are the snack food of the nature world
@@joerioux7089 where do you find rabbits?
@@hamzah5622 idk
@@joerioux7089 or an appetizer LOL.
@@joerioux7089 well squirels are fast, they always escape my cat who had plenty of chances to attack them.
When the mom is panning around and noticed all the crows (I think there were 4 total walking around the nest,) for a split second, she looks directly at the camera with an, "Aw crap........I'm screwed.." look on her face.
she was Feeding milk to her young ... Dumb MOVE
Perhaps now folks may understand how a group of these ruthless scavengers came to have the title, "A Murder of Crows"...
This is why nature gifted rabbits with fast reproduction, don't feel bad, the siblings survived. RIP to the one who was taken
Yeah, rabbits, chipmunks, squirrels, mice, etc - they are the snack food of the natural world
@@joerioux7089 delicious too
@@JK-qn9qryou also delicious when you cooked in burning house
@@MICLakVER humans don't make for good meal though. one of the reasons why eating human is banned.
@@MICLakVERaverage 5 year old:
This video should be titled absolute chaos.
Wow, this was really fascinating to watch. Watching the mother rabbit's ears moving and eyeing the crow while it's pacing nerby.
Agreed! This is better than watching any soap opera I've ever seen! So much drama in a little clip. Nature sure can be brutal.
@@Butterfly-mt5ml Nature is brutal, but that makes the love of the mother rabbit for her babies all the more remarkable.
@@dubistverrueckt You mean eating them when low on food or just straight up abandoning them. Ok.
@@user-lr8ow2jg4e that's right. Those animals are like programmed by nature robots. "Feelings" or whatever is just to when convenient. Specially to survive and make the specie survive too.
They just execute the commands they should do to reach those objectives. Some species are more out of this, being humans on top of that list. Although, not far enough.
6:30 bunny starts screaming, poor rabbits
Man why does this look like a scene in a movie? The way the mother runs the crow down!
Crows are incredibly smart birds
The squirrel was like ew what is that thing
Crows want nothing to do with the mother, adult rabbits have front teeth like carpenters chisels.
Red tailed hawks and golden eagles would beg to differ
Lead crow: “Dat’s a nice little nest yo got dere…would be a shame if anyting was to happen to it.”
that is a really bad place for a mother rabbit to make her home
Crows and there larger cousins Ravens are by far more then mere
scavengers. They are every bit as much a predator just like Birds of
Prey are. Where they lack the talons a Bird of Prey possesses. They make
up for in sheer beak power and typically one well placed "death blow"
is all it usually takes to kill there prey.
Nature us indeed interesting. At first I wondered why the doe built her borough out in the open field like that then realized that he crows were probably nesting in the nearby trees.
Secondly, the fact that the die fed her babies when it became apparent that an attack was ensuing. She was not only making her presence known but also given them food to flee. Amazing really... love rabbits and nature.
This is tough to watch, but also so fascinating at the same time. Nature is crazy!
@6:35, The Crow is running after the rabbit, yelling, "Get back here, you little sh*t!"
Lol the random squirrel just chillin in the background, probably glad it was the rabbit’s babies and not hers.
I wonder did the crows get some potatoes carrots and onions to make a tasty stew
Astonishing. Thank you for posting.
Thank you!
@@joerioux7089 so they didn't make it? lol
@@crazy4cockapoos at least 2 did
This was interesting to see! Thanks for sharing it! Nature sure can be tough, no doubt.
This happened in my front yard yesterday. I was shocked !
People are pretty optimistic to think only one baby was taken. By the end of the video they are all off camera for a couple minutes and the crows are gone with the mom running large circles to chase crows.
Every baby is crow food.
I was waiting for the surprise attack by the squirrel against both other teams
Momma Rabbit was a Goddamn warrior of legend taking on a cadre of giant, evil Black Crows.
Alright.. when the 4th crow came into frame i laughed pretty hard. I mean this is literally like a gang jumping. 😂 but also i hate that its the poor momma bunny and her kids 😢
Bad Crow! Naughty Crow! Go away Squirrel!!
I love rabbits
Ignorance is happiness,i guess
Lesssgoooo!!! Boys tag team!! My brother brought the whole squad!!
Good thing no babies were snatched. I love baby bunnies. The cuteness and innocence
He snatched one
He only snatched one, the rest weren’t harmed.
I agree! I'm glad all the baby bunnies and mom were okay!
Just because you didn't see it on camera? Sad news but they were all taken. They all split up and there were 4 crows kiting the mother around.
Spoiler alert! No crow was harmed in the making of this video.
your video is very interesting, we are watching your video, you do great job..❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍
Thank you!
Is there an update, of what happened with this litter? Did any/all of them survive?
I believe they did because within days of that I saw 3 young ones in my yard
Looks like a young crow still a bit downy ,the white patches on its feathers are probably from poor nutrition during its early growth stage ,if it eats well when it moults it will get nice healthy feathers.
Interesting, thanks! I'll rewatch and keep these points in mind
I am thinking the opposite, seems to be an older individual that’s been around the block many many times
I call the crow: crow gets grounded
Crows are so ghetto!
Placing a nest in the middle of a lawn right in plain sight seems like a dumb idea... but go on with how smart animals are.
This is common for rabbits
They do it because open spaces make predators cautious of attention and other predators
Rabbits aren't very smart compared to most animals
Rabbits aren’t smart idk why people keep saying that they’re smart lmao
Wild Rabbits aren't particularly smart. But it doesn't mean they aren't in general.
1:58 there's a Squirrel
Wow that is a great capture
Thank you!
Poor bunnies, I hope they were okay. Crows are mean
6:37 Mother Rabbit to the Rescue
What's the squirrel trying to do? Don't tell me it's another predator of the poor rabbits. 1:57
He snitched on the bunnies and alerted the crow mafia to their location
Did the crows get any of them? Got the rabbit nest last year crows took all 5 bunnies.
No, I don't think they did
Bunnies are stupid beyond belief. Instead running into the safety of their den, they run OUTSIDE of it. Not even basic animal instinct.
It's not a den. The hole is only about 3" deep and 4" around so they are trapped and vulnerable if they remain inside
I seen a scuffle with several smaller birds & a crow so I stopped my car to see what was going on & a crow was picking on a baby bunny while the other birds were having a fit. I tried to stop it & the crow grabbed the baby bunny & flew off with it, really upset me. Was a tiny bunny maybe only 1-5 days old.
Crows will also eat smaller birds.
Did the babies live? I saw them run from the nest and they never reappeared.
I know at least 2 did. They have been around my yard since
Angered the crow mafia. This was personal
Embleer corvil!!!
Wonderful
The baby bunny that got captured by the crow: HELP ME
God may help you, you poor thing
Your village is being raided by crowmaster72
LMAO 🤣🤣🤣
I don't know why the babies come out when the birds are around? In my yard, as soon as the mother leaves the babies come out. And get gobbled one by one by foxes, racoons, and birds.
I was rooting for the mother rabbit :(
I rooting for Crows
What’s the squirrel doing around the nest 2:30
Your guess is as good as mine
Ayo I didn’t know that swain love baby rabbits
You must have some strange Rabbits in your part of the world all of the Rabbits that I have ever come across live in burrows underground and at the first sight of danger they dash back to there burrow where they are safe from most things you do not get many crows going down burrows.
They live underground here as well but the nests aren't in the burrows
Angel Race V4 Vs Rabbit Race V4
By the way i saw crow scaring of mother rabbit due to size about 10 inch big that so scary like mamba snake
This video needs that Benny Hill toon
*tune
What happen at end also they all should stick around to be saved by mother
Get 'em Munin!
The brutal existence on this world sickens me.
... and then there were none

Rabbits are dumb and rather pathetic. They make their nests right out in the open where anything and everything can stumble across it, including humans and lawnmowers. A lot of the time most of the litter doesn’t survive to breed themselves, and there’s not a lot the mother can, or will, do to keep predators away. Rabbits’ only survival mechanism is that they’re prolific breeders. There’s a reason the saying “fuck like rabbits” exists.
Tl;dr: Almost certainly no, but the mother- and however many babies did/do survive- will make lots more.
This is sad poor baby bunnies 😭
Son plagas
@@jair84025debatable
This is sad, but, people also eat rabbits.
Everyone is saying that this is very interesting to watch, but I'm actually heartbroken seeing that it's just so hard for rabbits to live in this world of prey and predator. Also, there were no rabbits taken completely. The first one taken was able to escape, but I don't know which one it was that returned to nest. The crows definitely almost had a grip on the kits, but I'm glad that rabbits in general are so agile and swift so they can escape their predator. I hope that the mother rabbit hides them somewhere safer. It made me sad seeing how anxious she was to protect her kits, and it also made me sad seeing how the kits had to defend themselves from those crows :(
Proof that crows are dicks when humans aren’t looking
lol the squirrel, sneaks in to steal stuff and dips out 😂😂😂😂
😂😂
Thats why rabbits are prey. Food for smarter animals.
Not tryna sound rude. But I don't understand why people like you doubt the intelligence of a Herbivore or a Rabbit.
Rabbits are also very intelligent. They just can't fly like crows, crows are nasty birds, and crows are bad luck in many countries
I thought they feed the babies at night not in daylight....
I saw both daylight and nighttime feedings
@@joerioux7089 Ok..thx.

Poor crows were hungry
Indeed they were - everything eats...and shits
Rabbits in the uk are smarter, they live underground.
the live underground here too
You mean squarils nest
No, it was rabbit
Good idea to put the camera there to draw the predators attention to the nest. Brilliant!!!
beautiful and also educating movie. the first "rabbit" that I could see at your movie, at time 01:58, is not a rabbit, but that was a squirrel (the difference with a rabbit is the long tail of the squirrel). I think, but I'm not 100 % sure as I am not a specialist in the behaviour of little wild annimals, but I think this squirrel was also trying to steal one of the baby-rabbits with the intention to use it as feed for the squirrels' own baby-squirrels ....... thank you for sharing this real-life-experience. Life, and in special, the survive of wild annimals can be cruel, but they only kill for their own baby-annimals, opposite the way how human is killing annimals for our livelihood, is sadly al lot more gruesome and wasteful. I hope the baby-bunnies in your movie are has quickly running-back to their real nest and several of them could healthly survived. I can not believe, this place, in the middle of the grass lawn, was their original nest ....... I suppose mother-rabbit took her babies out for a walk, for one of the first discoveries of the big unknown world, and that mostly and often happen, for all kind of annimals, with nice and with less-nice experiences, where you made a very nice movie about it. I will look further on the internet for the squirrel ....... I like to find out it is usual possibly a squirrel-mother catch and steal also baby-rabbits to feed her babay-squirrels .......
Yes, it that was a squirrel, and yes squirrels do eat baby rabbits when they can. I'm sure that little stinker was trying to do just that, but just wasn't as smart as the crows. Hope the crows ate the squirrel instead.
@@dubistverrueckt Rabbits are weak.
@@dubistverrueckt sigue soñando
No offense, but someone would have to be really stupid if they don’t know the difference between a squirrel and a rabbit…🤔🤷♂️
You don't need to be a specialist to tell the difference between a squirrel and a rabbit LOL
Good thing I skipped
Rabbits live in a burrow, not a ‘nest’ and a collection of underground burrows is referred to as a warren
They live in burrows but they build a nest to have their young that is independent from their living quarters
@@joerioux7089 I think it’s just splitting hairs if I’m honest unless you can say otherwise
It is sad to see this but it is the circle of life, rabbit mothers are awful and abandon their young instantly on birth only visiting a few times a day to ensure they are alive before leaving again. Nature gave these crows the opportunity and they took it, crows are very smart, very cool looking and very much a predatory bird
They are not awful. They have to leave them. If they do not they are just going to attract attention. This one does a admirable job defending, but these are just birds. The best defense the little bunnies have is not being seen.
You know nothing about rabbits 😂
I think those are ravens they look too big to be crows. That rabbit is a good mother for protecting the babies
Bullies
Rabbits are dead
Nothing more satisfying than watching a crow try and kill a rabbit.
chase that attacking hare away!
Its a rook, not a crow.
Crow shooting is fun
rabbit shooting is even more.
A BB gun would take care of those crows 😄
Yea they can use it to hunt rabbits more efficiently.
Bruh, this is nature. All animals get hungry, all of them have to eat. It unfortunate but it's how it is. Crows don't exactly have restaurants.

Shame we didn't get to see the crow eat it. Rabbits a pellet fodder along with grey squirrels and rats, I'd have shot the adult rabbit, then sat back and watched the feast. If the crow didn't get one that squirrel definitely will.
Why? Those are cottontail rabbits, genus Sylvilagus, wildlife that has been in North America for TWELVE MILLION years.

idk. Why interfere with nature? When we put bias and lack of beauty in an animal over another we are prone to thinking "Yeah they should have just eaten the rabbit". Crows need to eat to survive, but the rabbits also value life so they will try not to get eaten to survive.
