Abstract
Ravens (Corvus corax) feed primarily on rich but ephemeral carcasses of large animals, which are usually defended by
territorial pairs of adults. Non-breeding juveniles forage socially and aggregate in communal winter roosts, and these
appear to function as ‘information centers’ regarding the location of the rare food bonanzas: individuals search
independentlyofoneanotherandpooltheireffortbyrecruitingeachotheratroosts.However,atalargeravenroostin
Newborough on Anglesey, North Wales, some juveniles have been observed recently to forage in ‘gangs’ and to roost
separatelyfromotherbirds.Hereweadaptageneralmodelofjuvenilecommonravenforagingbehaviorwhere,inaddition

This work serves to highlight a number of fruitful avenues for future research, both from a theoretical and empirical
perspective.
