Curious Counters
Description
Can animals and plants count? This is a question that has intrigued and fooled investigators for a long time. Just over a hundred years ago, a German horse called Hans was declared a mathematical genius, but all was not as it seemed. And strangely, some bamboos around the world flower exactly at the same time, no matter where they are. Are they counting down the years?
