Abstract
► We examine patterns of agonistic support in captive ravens. ► We find support for long-term but not short-term reciprocation of support. ► Ravens supported individuals who preened them, kin and dominant individuals. ► Strong correlation between dyadic levels of agonistic support and consolation. ► Ravens may use emotions to mediate reciprocation of support.
