I doubt it, cougars don't fly, so they can'ts catch birds...
The scientific name for crows is Corvus. They belong to the genus Corvus, which is a group of passerine birds in the family Corvidae.
crows don't exactly have a scientific term but they have a genus known as Corvus
There are many different species of crows, but if you're talking about the American crow, the scientific name is Corvus brachyrhynchos. There are many different species of crows, but if you're talking about the American crow, the scientific name is Corvus brachyrhynchos.
Yes; Genus is Corvus.
Both male and female crows are called "crows". Crows are members of a widely distributed genus of birds, Corvus, in the family Corvidae.
The scientific name for the Crow genus is corvus for example the common raven is covus corax, the carrion crow corvus corone, the thick billed raven Corvuscrassirostris and the Cuban crow Corvus nasicus.
Crows are defined as belonging to the Genus Corvus which Ravens belong to so Ravens are basically crows. Starlings are only distantly related and are more closely related to mockingbirds.
Yes. Not only the same family, corvidae, but even the same genus, Corvus. The common American crow is Corvus brachyrhynchos, and the common raven is C. corax. All birds commonly called "crows" or "ravens" are in the genus Corvus, along with rooks and jackdaws (about 40 or so species in all). The crow family, corvidae, includes jays and magpies as well.

yes crows eat spiders
No. Crows and ravens are different species all together, even if they look the same from a distance. A raven is bigger than a crow, and is capable of gliding through the air like a hawk or an eagle, but not a crow. Ravens also have a larger, more hooked beak than a crow does, and also has a larger wing-span. Ravens also have a wedge shaped tail in flight, and shaggy throat feathers.Though these animals are related (they belong in the same Genus, which is Corvus), and look the same, they are really not. The raven is Corvus corax, the crow is Corvus brachyrhynchos.
Just saw two crows trying to catch a squirrel in the woods. The squirrel was jumping from tree to tree with the crows flying after it. They were definitely trying to catch it. So from what I saw crows do eat/hunt squirrels
