A grey-collared black crow closely tied to human settlements, introduced to Borneo through shipping and now established as an urban scavenger in some port towns.
Highly opportunistic, feeding on refuse, scraps and small animals around markets and harbours, and considered an introduced species whose spread is often actively managed due to its impact on native birdlife.
