鹦鹉巧学人类语言,乌鸦妙用工具觅食,猴子协作智取果实,大象记路不忘恩情。动物们的智慧正颠覆你对它们的想象!
Your dog waves his tail to welcome you home. You may say, "My dog is so smart!" But how smart are animals?
People once thought animals didn't think. If they were hungry, they ate. If they were thirsty, they drank. If they were cold, they sat in the sun. If they were hot, they looked for cool places.
Now we know differently. Alex is a parrot. He likes to talk! He can speak almost 100 English words. He can count to six. He even knows what the numbers mean. He learns shapes and colours and can tell them apart. Alex works hard to say words correctly. He can also correct other parrots when they don't say the words clearly enough!
Parrots aren't the only smart animals. Ravens can solve puzzles谜. They can get fish from fishermen.
Monkeys also talk to one another. They use sounds to tell other monkeys who they are.
Elephants can remember things for a long time. They also have other amazing skills. Like humans, they can look in mirrors镜子 and know they are seeing themselves!
So, how smart are animals? The answer is "smarter than you think".
