Crow surprises Japanese commuters by attempting to buy train ticket from a machine【Video】





The clever bird even steals a customer’s credit card to pay for the train fare.


If you’ve been to Japan before, you’ve probably stumbled upon some surprising things that stand out as being very different to everyday life back home. One of these things might be the efficiency of the country’s transport system, or the non-confrontational nature of the people, or if you’ve spent any length of time here, the huge population of smart, big black crows.

For many locals here, crows are such a prominent aspect of everyday life that people have to cover their trash with mesh to deter the birds from getting into their scraps, and local governments set up crow traps at parks and temples to cull the population, which has been rising steadily every year.

The big black birds are so used to living alongside humans that they’re not afraid of invading their personal spaces, and for one particular crow spotted recently, that means cutting the line at the station to buy a train ticket from the automatic machines…and stealing a commuter’s credit card to pay for it in the process.
