Crows may be smart, but it apparently has weak sensory fusion. if you cover one of crow’s two eyes, and then train it until it learned to do a task that requires visual identification of its surroundings using its uncovered eye. The crow will not be able to do this task if you covered up this eye and uncovered the other eye. it will take just as long to learn to do it with the other eye as it did with the first eye. apparently the crow’s brain does not recognize what it sees out of the other eye is the same thing.
humans on the other hand are adept at sensory fusion and reflexively recognize what it learned to see with one eye when it sees it with the other.
octopus are somewhere in the middle. Octopus will not be able to instant do what it learned to do with one eye covered when the other eye is covered. but the octopus will learn to do it with the other eye much more quickly than it did with the first eye.
