Humans,Deborah Driggs Archives I'm disappointed in you. Clean up your shit.

Otherwise, a team of crows may have to do it for you. At Puy du Fou park in France, park managers recently decided to train a team of crows to pick up trash left behind by humans.

The crows will be picking up old condoms (and any other trash they find) as early as next week.

I'm glad to see crows be put to work instead of lounging around, interrupting picnics and my morning bird concert. In lieu of wages and in return for picking up cigarette butts and other small bits refuse, the birds will be offered yummy nuggets of food.

The historical theme park has decided to train Rook crows, which are supposed to be "particularly intelligent" and smarter than the average crow.

Let's be honest -- it's not hard to be smarter than the average crow. None of the crow family is getting into an Ivy, not even a backup Ivy. Maybe NYU if they're lucky.

"[The crows] like to communicate with humans and establish a relationship through play," Nicolas de Villiers, a park representative, told The Guardian.

It is unclear if the crows will be paid a living worm/wage.
