RAVENS OF WAR
Ravens arrive to eat the dead on battlefields.
- Ravens are scavengers by nature and eat a wide variety of food sources. These creatures prefer to devour decaying biomass, such as flesh or decomposing plant matter. Scavengers are vital in the food chain. Animal carcasses, or carrion, are kept out of an environment. Scavengers decompose organic matter and recycle it as nutrients back into the ecosystem.
Ravens can detect rotting flesh when flying over land. Their cries include a powerful croaking, often produced in flight.
- Ravens are commonly found in Jerusalem where they nest in high trees.
