I know that the crows in VFD are the Village of Fowl Devotees crows, but maybe its like this. Maybe the good side of VFD uses crows, I dont know what possibly for though, and the evil side of VFD uses eagles, like in TSS. Maybe the good VFD uses the crows for work, like the eagles in the evil VFD. And remember that in TWW when it says Beatrice was swooped away by an eagle? Coincidence? I think not.

Yeah, the bad V.F.D use eagles and lions, and the good V.F.D uses carrier crows(?) and reptiles, or they just use crows, I dont remember which, but yeah, you got the information right.

They use reptiles and crows, but they are losing them fast, it dosn't look that good for Good VFD.

I think that Hector first trained the VFD crows to carry messages. In the autobio it mentions VFD using carrier pigeons, but maybe Hector decided to use the stronger and more intelligent VFD village crows instead.

The crows are carrier crows used for transporting messages and the reptiles are used to guard important information. The eagles are obviously a carrier-type bird and the lions are probably used to protect VFD headquarters in different areas so no evil people cant get there.
I dont think Beatrice is the Baudelaire mom. I also dont think that Beatrice was the only one to get swooped up by birds. I think more people were picked up than we think. *wink*

Do you mean what I think you mean?
I think the eagles are more of a lookout for bad people and fires.

You're correct, sugarhigh.
Before the schism, many animals worked for V.F.D. The reptiles guarded libraries and in some cases knew code (which they passed on to the crickets, who seem to work freelance), the crows took messages (and probably looked less obvious than a pigeon if you want to send a secret message), the lions were trained to smell smoke from a long distance away, and probably also guard places, and the eagles were taught to see smoke from a long distance, and probably also acted as lookouts.
Edit from after TGG: Salmon were also trained to swim upstream to search for forest fires, but this plan fell flat because Café Salmonella took all the salmon for eating.
After the schism, I'm guessing the animals were divided by which side had their trainers or most of their trainers. I'm not sure if the bad side instantly won anything - it seems more like they left the animals to their own devices then came and got them when they needed them (CC, SS).

That makes sense, but if you put it that the lions went with the trainers, and the lions are on the bad side of VFD, wasn't Beatrice a lion trainer? ( I cant for the life of me remember where I read this) So if you put this all together, Beatrice could be on bad VFD ( reason for not marrying( I cant spell) Lemony?) Or Some lions went with good VFD. Or Beatrice was left with no lions to train.

I'd say that Beatrice trained lions before the schism.

I think the crows are for carrying messages and the eagles are to stop them from completeing this task

Lemony said he's seen the woman he loves being swooped up by an eagle. Beatrice did die in a fire, but the eagle thing wouldn't have killed her.
