For centuries, the people of Pravia town have lived in harmony with the crows that often appear in the locality. But in the past 5 months, everything suddenly changed, when the crows began to behave strangely and aggressively attack people, cars and houses.
It all started in May, when people discovered a flock of crows continuously swooping down and pecking at the windows until they bled. No one can explain the exact cause. Outside the window, Crows attack both people and vehicles. Witnessing the incident for many months, many people likened this scene to something in Alfred Hitchcock horror movies.
“Today, 17 crows gathered in front of my window, and nothing could scare them,” a resident of the town of Pravia shared.
“My neighbor had to repaint his entire car, because there were so many scratches on it,” another resident added.

Initially, people in the Spanish town believed that through aggressive behavior, the crows wanted to protect their young and drive humans away from their habitat. But after a while, the ferocity of the crows does not decrease but increases. Some people also believe that the lack of food and natural habitat has pushed crows to extreme behavior.
Even though they were bleeding, the crows did not stop. This led to scenes of bloody windows in houses throughout the town.
After receiving hundreds of complaints from residents, local authorities attempted to make an arrest flock of crows by setting traps, repelling them with balloons, and using nets.
“This is very strange, we need to find an explanation because they are very ferocious,” Mr. David Álvarez, Mayor of Pravia, also admitted that the local government is currently unable to stop the ferocious birds.
