Animal Intelligence
Animal intelligence refers to the cognitive abilities of non-human animals, encompassing problem-solving, learning, communication, and social interaction. It varies widely across species, with some animals demonstrating advanced skills, such as tool use, self-awareness, and complex social structures. Research in animal intelligence often involves comparative studies, examining behaviors in various environments. Notable examples include the problem-solving abilities of crows, the social complexity of dolphins, and the communication skills of primates. Understanding animal intelligence contributes to insights in evolutionary biology, psychology, and conservation efforts.
