But I've never seen one in south america (traveled a bit around there) and it looks like wikipedia haven't as well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corvus_(genus)

Good point. While the family Corvidae (Corvids, which includes Jays) is found in South America, the genus Corvus ("Crows") is absent there. So for PBS to be correct you have to read "Crows" as "the Crow family".
