Amazing video of injured bird asking for human help

THIS FOOTAGE HAS surfaced of a raven, with porcupine quills stuck in its flesh, apparently asking a human for help extracting them.
The raven perched near the home of Gertie Cleary in Elmsdale, Nova Scotia and squawked until she paid attention:
When she approached the raven presented its head, allowing her to pull out the barbs – though clearly in distress. Cleary told CTV News:
She then carried the raven to a house, and gave it food and water before it flew away.
Porcupines can release their barbed quills when they feel threatened, lodging them in the flesh of other animals.
