Some ravens have taken to stealing and hiding golf balls, perhaps because they look like eggs.

Given the intelligence of the Raven I would imagine they are merely trying to save a “Human Egg” from being smashed by the human with the golf club. And maybe to have a human as a pet once it has hatched but, that is just my opinion of this intelligent aviarian

Anyone who has birds knows that this Raven is just out for some fun. It has no intention of eating that ball. Birds love to play with balls. And by hiding it, he’s just making sure that golfer never sees it again!
