I know ravens are slightly bigger than their cousins. But I know there is more of a difference between the two.

Dunno, that site seems pretty amateurish. I'd check out a more credible site if I were you, or better yet, a book from the library.

Aaah... Thanks for posting this topic and the wonderful replies. I often wonder that myself but always thought that Raven is the term used by Westerners while Crow is mainly used by Asians.

Just listen to the two and you can pick out which is which in the woods.

They both eat the same kind of garbage so they both need to be scared away. :D

Ravens eat flesh, crows eat both seed and flesh.
And the birds are from two different bird families...Ravens are bluish/black and crows are black..there can be white crows, but they are very rare.

IIRC white crows are albino crows. Kind of like white tigers and etc, could have happened to ravens too.

That could be true too Paladin2000...but I am only saying what I learnt from school.
So, there are probably some thing wrong with that...heheh [img]tongue.gif[/img]
