Growing up we had a local raven who would ring like all the local telephones. He would ring, wait for people to go inside to answer the phone, and see if there was any food around! My Meyer's parrot was introduced to a clicker the day after he came home. He is 10 years old and wonderful, he loves training but he's quite cheeky. After first trying to steal the clicker so he could click it and get a treat, he figured Why not cut out the middle man, so he just mimics the sound of the clicker himself 😅😂 when im asking for a new behavior and he feels he's tried hard enough he will click and wait for a treat Great Work Taylor, your patience will pay off tenfold ❤️
Dunno if anyone cares but if you're stoned like me atm you can watch all of the latest movies on instaflixxer. Have been watching with my girlfriend for the last few months :)
Oh it must have been so frustrating to lose all that good work to this crummy pandemic! I'm so glad y'all found a way for everyone to be safe and back working with the ambassadors. So happy to see the journey and that things are working out.
I'm sure too. Having a relationship to an intelligent animal feels great. I have a strong relationship to my goats (wich already are freaking intelligent), but knowing that this animal's intelligents is on an level that close to you're own must feel so good.
Thank you for sharing Taylor. It's fascinating to see the struggles that you (and all of Animal Wonders) have had to go through this year to help give the animals the best life and care possible.
I love teaching him a new behavior and watching how excited and confident he becomes as he figures out what I'm asking him to do. I also just love watching him. He'll cache food and then see me watching and carry it to a new hiding spot lol. He's a goofball.
Good job Taylor!!! I am so glad your persistence and dedication is paying off!! And I hope Luka succeeds in becoming a fabulous ambassador for his kind!
ravens are so amazing! im glad yall were able to get back to training, i always admire yalls patience with the animals and how much work yall put into training.
Is Taylor just in charge of avian care, or does she also take care of tbe nonavian residents at Animal Wonders? I'm curious because she always apears with the birds. P.S. I love the videos featuring Taylor she has such a warm and fun vibe in front of the camera.
Oh, I can see why you'd ask that. Taylor feeds and cleans all of the animals and works with almost all of them. The experiences she's shared in her videos are of some of the most prominent training adventures she's been on. Why all birds? We have quite a lot of birds and some of them require a devoted trainer that just focuses on them and it's sometimes best to have one trainer per bird. Taylor took on the task of training and bonding with Archie the Amazon parrot, Scarlet the macaw, and Luka the raven. This worked well since Jessi had already bonded with Zoe and Chongo the Amazon parrots, Joy the macaw, and Rook the raven. It also works great because this way all the animals get their own person and no matter which wildlife educator is hosting a program, there's always an individual animal that can represent that group of birds.
I wonder why. Usually intelligence comes with curiosity. Unlike doves that might have a history of genetic domestication city dwelling ravens keep 10' distance.
@@0MoTheG I think your question may contain an answer. Undomesticated social animals are usually extremely careful and easily get anxious. For example wolves Vs dogs. Wolves have almost 30% larger brain, for same body size, which is probably why they are very careful about approaching unknown individuals. I'm guessing ravens might reason in similar way.
I feel like both the ravens would like puzzles. Maybe tie a box closed so they either have to break the box or untie the rope. Maybe start with it barely tied so they can understand it. Also your monkey would like this too.
@@animalwondersmontana I am really curious to see how complex a knot they can untie. And if you put holes in the box to put the rope through then they cannot just slide it off
I can only imagine the personality spectrum in birds. Esp ones that are just about as smart as us, I bet you could find this video on Beakbook. They have to have their own social media app right? Stay safe and good luck, it's got to be so cool when they do finally begin to at least tolerate you Lol.
I wonder if it has something to do with abandonment issues. He was learning to trust someone and then that person just disappeared without him understanding why.
It can be so disheartening when you lost the progress you've made. When our nursery opened back up after being closed for 4 months it was like the children had forgotten everything! When you've seen what they can do it's frustrating to have to to build back up to that same place, but when you do get there it feels so good.
There's actually a ton of documentation that goes into caring for the animals and running a nonprofit. We were able to update our animal care software system, build more thorough and streamlined intern and volunteer packets, and create a smoother donor experience that's easier for us to track and use for communicating with our donors. Since all of our public presentations were cancelled due to the pandemic and school closures we could reallocate the time put into shows and use it for our infrastructure. 🙂
@@animalwondersmontana Super interesting! Thank you for answering. I didn't think of all of the other things that would need to be done behind the scenes.
This is really interesting, one point I did wonder that wasn't address was how having ]Rook in the enclosure affected training, did she do any behaviours passively or not care?
Animal woders i eed help my caary sits i the food bowl and digs it? what is he doing ad sometimes he sits not right so do you kow whats wrog a what should i do
Not really. They need a huge enclosure, specialized diet, and tons of attention/training. Their bite is also really painful. They are amazing animals though
This. ☝ I want a toucan as well, as they are my favorite. But they're a different ballgame compared to parrots. I recommend the youtube channel 2cantv. He is starting a toucan rescue, and knows more about them than almost anybody. Plus his videos are lots of fun, and you can get your toucan fix there! Hehe. 😆 😊
There's always a reason for animals to fight and most often it's because they're competing for resources. This can be food, mates, territory, attention, or even just the best seat in the house. You'll need to figure out what they are fighting for and adjust their care to ensure their needs are addressed. Good luck!
She is Jessi's assistant. She started to appear in videos right before the first quarentine, and we're finally just now seeing her again. That's probably why you don't recognize her.
Wow 😳❗❗ I cannot believe that Jesse had to take care of ALL the ANIMALS when the PLANdemic 1st started .... NO STAFF ❓❓😯😲😩 SO GLAD to SEE YOU GUYS ALL BACK TOGETHER AGAIN 💕👍👍 THANX 4 ALL YOU DO ❗❗

Great Work Taylor, your patience will pay off tenfold ❤️
Your story about your parrot is adorable!! lol
Those are both great stories! Some animals work so hard trying to train their humans. 😁
Haha, I love both stories too! 💛

@Edward Brody definitely, I've been watching on InstaFlixxer for months myself :)

Hurray for luka and Taylor great job :)
A lot of work into this relationship... props to you Taylor, I'm sure he's worth it!
I'm sure too.

Wowww you did an amazing job on that particular individual Taylor! You're so patient and dedicated!! Congrats onyour progress!
It's nice to see Taylor again! I can't wait to see what progress can be made between these two in the coming months/years 💕
Thank you for sharing Taylor. It's fascinating to see the struggles that you (and all of Animal Wonders) have had to go through this year to help give the animals the best life and care possible.
I think ravens are one of the coolest birds! What do you love most about working with Luka?
Parrots are better lol.
I love teaching him a new behavior and watching how excited and confident he becomes as he figures out what I'm asking him to do. I also just love watching him. He'll cache food and then see me watching and carry it to a new hiding spot lol. He's a goofball.
@@taylorcraig112 ohmygosh that hilarious!
@@r.r819 Magpies are even better.
He's made such good progress! I've always loved how intelligent ravens are, and how strong their personalities can be. Great video!
You have such a soothing and pleasant voice, Taylor! You're such a wonderful presenter. Thanks for everything you do at AnimalWonders!!
I'm so glad you were able to come back and continue Luka's training!
Good job Taylor!!! I am so glad your persistence and dedication is paying off!! And I hope Luka succeeds in becoming a fabulous ambassador for his kind!
What a lovely relationship, ravens are such fascinating animals - thanks for helping him have a great life
ravens are so amazing! im glad yall were able to get back to training, i always admire yalls patience with the animals and how much work yall put into training.
I am so happy to see luka improving so much I hope he becomes the best ambassador in animal wonder best wishes and goodluck
Hats of to not only animal wonders but also Taylor,Jessi,Augusto and others.❤️
Im happy to see Rook finally got a companion! Even if they are not best friends I bet it is good for them to live together.

Look at him catch those treats! You're both amazing!
im 9 and i love animal wonders montana
You all are just so awesome, I have no words. You are appreciated to be sure. ;-)
Great job! Ravens are so incredibly smart. They really do have amazing problem solving skills. I'm excited to see how the relationship goes!
Good to see you back on the channel Taylor.
Corvids are such amazing birds. I am a little jealous that you can work with Luka this way!
Good job Taylor, you’re doing great!
I've been missing that adorable syllabic stress on "every" in "go on adventures with us every week". Thanks for bringing it back.
Taylor is so wholesome and brave!
Luka is one of my favorite animals at AnimalWonders. Ravens are so beautiful--I would love to see one in person!
Great work, Taylor!
This rules, have more videos featuring Taylor
Haha thanks :)
I guess it takes a lot of work to gain raven trust. Looking forward to more news about Luka.

I'm voting for a whole video on BE for Ravens!!! 🤚🤚🤚
Ravens love puzzles if Fable from Falconry and Me is anything to go off of.
Oh, most defintely! Luka, Rook, and Mimi love puzzle feeders and are some of the most interactive with their enrichment.
Yay. They saw my comment. I forgot to mention treats need to be in the box but I feel like they already know that
@@animalwondersmontana I am really curious to see how complex a knot they can untie. And if you put holes in the box to put the rope through then they cannot just slide it off
Love to see more Taylor vids!

Love all your video
wow i Love ravens even more now
We need a bird room tour
It's crucial for us to see the bird room
Yay! Hi, Taylor 👋🏻
Amazing job!
Ravens have a good memory for human faces and people why did your absence set him back so far?
I wonder if it has something to do with abandonment issues. He was learning to trust someone and then that person just disappeared without him understanding why.
I was thinking that too.

Big up to the person that put the labels also for the homo zapiens :) helps remind that we are one
Good work! 🙂👍
Wow A crow thats so cool
I am curious what kind of work the people who were working from home did for Animal Wonders?
Great job on working through the continuing pandemic ❤

I have the notifications bell on, but am not getting notifications until two or three days after the release of your videos, if at all.
Hi Taylor
@Peter Mortensen ok
I almost was expecting to find that Crows had taken over the world when trained to use guns and pens..
This is really interesting, one point I did wonder that wasn't address was how having ]Rook in the enclosure affected training, did she do any behaviours passively or not care?
Animal woders i eed help my caary sits i the food bowl and digs it? what is he doing ad sometimes he sits not right so do you kow whats wrog a what should i do
Wow . He is big.
hello! I know I am really late, but I have a question, Is a toucan a good pet? cause I really want one!
Not really. They need a huge enclosure, specialized diet, and tons of attention/training. Their bite is also really painful. They are amazing animals though

@@gothic_oma Oh oki! I will check him out!
@@juliac3933 Oh also I never knew they bite!
@@raelyn4789 yup, they have serrations on the edges of their beaks so they basically shred you as they bite.
Oh hi good video I can tell
wow is went so well good job

Question can you come to Australia and find a eastern water skink
How is it now, nearly a year later?
How did you take the animals that lived in animal wonders when the Pandemic started?
🖤🖤
Check out the Falconry and me UA-cam channel, she has some great videos specifically on ravens!
I saw a crow attacking a hawk one time
I am a Ravenclaw 💙
wa wa happen to the real owner?
WHO IS TAYLORRRR?!
She is Jessi's assistant. She started to appear in videos right before the first quarentine, and we're finally just now seeing her again. That's probably why you don't recognize her.
Where is Jessi ?????
Me seeing the title:😅
Anyone else trying to start a bird army ?
Boy am I ever click-baited 😅
