Who knew that crows liked hugs? This crow cries in the rain and asks for hugs from his human

Sometimes all you need is a warm hug, which will instantly make you feel better. Even if for a moment, a warm hug transports you to a different world, where everything seems just picture-perfect. Now, this is something that isn't just restricted to humans; sometimes, animals, too, need a little attention and a whole lot of love just to feel safe in a world that often neglects them. Though watching pets like dogs or cats cuddling up to their owners isn't rare, when a crow shows the same emotions, it feels outlandish as well as extraordinary. We understand if a crow being affectionate sounds unreal to you, but wait till you watch an astonishing video posted on Fuff Fuff Fuff's (@fufffufffuff) YouTube channel.

The woman was working in the other room when she heard Frankie, the crow, chatting in the kitchen. She said she could hear Frankie say "Hello" like about a million times, and occasionally a few other words. When the woman finally held her camera to record, Frankie, who was sitting on the dining table, immediately stopped talking, as if he knew he was being captured. "Oh ya, now that I get the phone out, you stopped chatting," she said, trying to initiate a conversation with the crow. As the woman moved closer, Frankie opened his mouth, like asking her to feed him. "No, you can feed yourself. Are you hungry? You know where your food is," she said. Further, the woman shared that it had been raining for a long time, and Frankie had been confronting the weather from the pines.

He was sitting at such a great height that his mother couldn't reach him, so she deliberately left the doors open so that anytime Frankie felt the need, he could get inside the house. "When he finally flew to a branch that I could grab him, he was soaking wet and he was crying," the woman said. When she moved closer, taking Frankie into a hug, he started making soft cooing sounds, possibly telling her how much he hated the rain. "That's what he does when he cries," Frankie's owner revealed. The video ended abruptly as the woman saw the frow perched on the chair, and saw him pooping.

This incredible instance, highlighting the unimaginable bond the bird shared with his owner, defies the age-old stereotype that crows don't make good pets. Interestingly, according to a report by A-Z Animals, crows get bored and destructive when confined to close spaces. Further, the report said that crows' "high intelligence isn’t well-suited for life in captivity."

Meanwhile, Frankie's received an outpouring of love on social media, with people appreciating the woman for taking good care of the innocent little bird. For instance, @kingghidorah8106 commented, "I love how you can read his body language. He cuddled, and then when he looked at you and made a head twitch, you understood he had enough contact, and you released him." @75blackviking shared, "You can tell he loves you. I have chickens that I spoil. This little guy gets tons of love and attention, one can tell."

Similarly, another user who goes by @mypetsmygarden wrote, "This baby crow is simply adorable! The cute sounds it makes while asking for hugs are heartwarming. Thanks for sharing this precious moment — it truly brightened my day!" @cigolxel commented, "There's something inherently troubling about a bird so intelligent that it can not only hold a grudge against you but even plan its revenge."
