Animal Einsteins
Description
If only they could talk! Humans have always wanted to find out what's going on inside the minds of animals, but how? In this episode of Scientific American Frontiers, scientists show that their latest experiments are beginning to reveal how animals think. Clever pigs do what they are told; wily ravens pull the right string; smart chimps do the math; enthusiastic sea lions sort out groups; and wise monkeys can't be fooled. The startling conclusion—move over, Einstein—animals think pretty much the way humans do!
