Jubilee the raven (photos 1-3) with his friend Munin (with Jubilee in photo 4), who live at the Tower of London.

The Ravens of the Tower of London are a group of at least six captive ravens which live at the Tower of London. Their presence is traditionally believed to protect the Crown and the tower; a superstition holds that “if the Tower of London ravens are lost or fly away, the Crown will fall and Britain with it”.

Suffolk pub landlord helping tame Tower of London ravens in bid to stop practice of clipping wings

The sharp-eyed ravens who guard the Tower of London are such an important part of the building that legend has it the structure will collaps

King Charles II is believed to have said in the 17th century that if there were ever less than six a great disaster would fall on the Kingdom, and now six ravens and a spare are kept at the Tower at all times.

Because of this superstition, as well as concern for the safety of the birds, their wings have traditionally been clipped to limit how far they can fly away.

Now, the glossy black birds at the Tower, are being tamed by a pub landlord to stay on site, allowing them to maintain their ability to soar into the skies.
