Creatures of the animal kingdom never fail to surprise us with their unexpected traits, behaviours, and skills that often leave us speechless. There have been instances where dolphins recognize their reflection, and elephants take care of their young ones with empathy; apart from this, parrots also converse in a human tone with effortless ease with their human counterparts. Recently, a crow in Palghar, Maharashtra, has gone viral for a surprising reason, that it also speaks like a human!
A video that has taken over social media platforms, including Instagram, X, and LinkedIn, shows a crow mimicking human words with visible clarity. In the video, the crow can be heard repeatedly saying, “Papa, Papa, Papa,” much to the amazement of everyone watching. The clip has captured the attention of thousands and left many viewers in disbelief.
The caption accompanying the video provides an interesting backstory: “In a remote area of Wada Taluk, Palghar, a woman named Tanuja Mukne has shocked locals after a crow she cared for three years ago started speaking like a human. Three years ago, Mukne found the bird in her garden and spent fifteen days nursing it back to health. Now, to everyone's surprise, the crow communicates with family members in a human-like voice. The unusual incident has become a topic of fascination in the village, drawing curiosity from both residents and experts.”
The video has been shared widely and it was even posted by BBC Marathi on YouTube with the caption: “This crow from Gargaon in Palghar has gone viral. He is seen making sounds resembling human words. Mukne treated an injured crow a few years ago. Since then, this crow has grown up in their home and now utters words like ‘Kaka,’ ‘Baba,’ ‘Mummy,’ and more.”
This surprising video showing traits that are alien to crows has left netix=zens in awe and has gathered innumerable comments and likes, one user jokingly wrote, “He’s ready. JEE ki coaching shuru kar do iski (Start his JEE coaching now).” Another commented, “Cannot believe my eyes.” While some pointed out that crows can mimic human sounds when trained, the video still continues to baffle the internet.
What are the other animals that can mimic human sounds?
Mynah birds and parrots also excel at copying human speech, which makes them popular pets, apart from them, some species of bats can imitate sounds similar to human speech as well. Even certain whales, particularly orcas, can mimic human-like sounds.
