1 Answer

Answer :

answer:I want to warn you that it is impossible to identify what other species actually “know”. All we can do is infer what they know based on observations. I shall show you a relevent video which we were shown in a lecture about animal intelligence. You can make what you want of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSoqfb56tpQ What I make from it: chimpanzees can use computers and can also select abstract shapes in a certain order regardless of position on a display with the correct training.
