This is not a pretty story....

About 200 dead crows were found near Halifax and there was *concern for 
Avian Flu.*

They had a Bird Pathologist examine the remains of all thecrows, and to 
everyone's relief he confirmed the problem was definitely NOT Avian Flu.

However, he determined that 98 percent of the crows had been killed by 
impactwith trucks, and only 2 percent were killed by car impact. The 
Province then hired an
Ornithological Behaviourist to determine the disproportionate 
percentages fortruck versus car kill.
The Ornithological Behaviourist determined the cause in short order. 
Whencrows eat road kill, they always post a 'look-out crow' in a nearby 
tree, to warn of impending danger.

His conclusion was that the lookout crow could say 'cah', but he could 
not say 'truck'.
Sorry ... had to do it.
