That's a thought.
I have seen animal paintings. I have not seen animal poetry, animal rocket ships, animal surgeons.
@FearlessFly That would be intelligence as defined by humans? Animals also have the limits of their bodies.. just as we do.
@AmmaRE007 . . . sooo, animals are intelligent -- for some definitions of intelligence (I have heard that referred to as cognition -- not the same thing).
@FearlessFly ANIMAL INTELLIGENCE: "Animal intelligence refers to a group of abilities that enable problem-solving by animals in a given environment. "
What is ANIMAL INTELLIGENCE? definition of ANIMAL INTELLIGENCE (Psychology Dictionary)
@AmmaRE007 . . . sooo, animals are intelligent -- for some definitions of intelligence.
The website does refer to it as "a collection of cognitive abilities in animals that are typified by learning, problem solving, and higher-order cognition."
I think crows can read your mind. That’s my experience.
