The family of Ravens occurs worldwide with the exception of New Zealand and some islands. The body length is between 18 cm and 70 cm; so among them are the largest of all songbirds. Ravens have powerful bills and often hold the food with their feet when eating. They are curious and one of the most intelligent species in the entire bird world.
