birdcamfan:
Maybe they instinctively know that brains are a rich source of nutrition as they are made up of a high concentration of fatty acids. Brings a whole new meaning to the term "fat head" ;D.
dupre501:
Must be October - Brains, brains (the zombies call)
Jazzerkins:
I understand that in Belgium, rabbit brains are considered a delicacy and family members often fight over who gets it at meals times. Yuck. To each his own, I guess. Not for me.

Males when they bring food to their mates will often leave on wings and legs which don't have any "meat" so to speak but the head will be missing.

Maybe some brains are nicer tasting than others? Not even going to think about how one would test that though :-X
Kinderchick:
As an aside, I know that when the wandering "outdoor" cats in our neighbourhood go after the baby squirrels in the spring, the first thing they do is remove the head & chow down. Not a pretty sight. :P
