The trinity of wolf, man, and raven in the hunt is an extremely ancient one. As scavengers, ravens were associated with hunters they found in the north: wolves and, later, men. Ravens, like early humans, are scavengers on the kills of great carnivores. Throughout history there has existed an extraordinary relationship between humans and ravens. At the heart of this book are Heinrich’s love and respect for these complex and engaging creatures, and through his keen observation and analysis, we become their intimates too. But as animals can only be spied on by getting quite close Heinrich adopts ravens, thereby becoming a “raven father,” as well as observing them in their natural habitat, studying their daily routines, and in the process painting a vivid picture of the world as lived by the ravens. Much like a sleuth, Heinrich involves us in his quest, letting one clue lead to the next. In Mind of the Raven, Bernd Heinrich, award-winning naturalist, finds himself dreaming of ravens and decides he must get to the truth about this animal reputed to be so intelligent.
