Crow Refuses To Leave The Man Who Saved His Life By Zainab Akande May. 26, 2016
Canuck, a crow who lives in Vancouver, Canada, got into a bit of trouble recently. His dad, Shawn Bergman, wasn't pleased by the bird's conduct.
"I'm not thrilled that he tampered with a crime scene, but what ... [can] you do?" Bergman told The Dodo. "He's a wild crow."

On Tuesday, police arrived at a crime scene where they were confronted by a man holding a knife. Shots were fired and the man was arrested.
The knife inevitably became evidence — but was picked up by Canuck when he swooped in and decided it would become his. An officer managed to chase the clever crow until he finally dropped the knife, CBC News reported.

But long before Canuck was meddling in police affairs, he was a hatchling who had fallen out of his nest as a baby. "He was found and raised by my landlord's son," Bergman wrote on Canuck's Facebook page. "He was no bigger than a tennis ball and was not able to fly due to his age. He more than likely would've died if he hadn't been taken in, in my opinion."
