Did you see that raven that could play Tic-Tac-Toe and won?! I would have assumed that a seagull would never be able to pull something like that. But guess what?! I’m probably right. (Typical.) But, it turns out that seagulls are a lot smarter than bird brains (I think the technical term is “ornithologists”) had previously assumed. I guess they can use tools an’ shit? And can read human cues to a certain extent.

Now, do they have the kinda using-a-tool-to-make-another-tool-to-do-something-else skills that crows and ravens boast? Apparently not. So, I’m assuming that a seagull could play Tic-Tac-Toe, but would probably never win. I mean, maybe to a really dumb guy. Like John James Audubon, the guy who famously painted hundreds of birds and was praised for his scientific accuracy and detail before people realized he straight up made up a ton of birds.

Though, maybe he would win against the seagull, but only because he couldn’t resist cheating.
