Quiero lograr mi meta

Buenas linda comunidad no e de hablar mucho solo transmitirles que quiero lograr mi meta, ser un humano que ponga su granito de arena en esta tierra, mi propósito es salir a las calles a dar alimento a animales indefensos, soy de una comunidad no tan marginada, pero me llena de cólera ver a tanto animalito sufriendo por las calles, solo puedo ayudar un poco yo no tengo un empleo muy solventado, pero destino parte de él a dar un bocado de alivio a los indefensos animalitos, solo quiero apoyo para seguir fortaleciendo este sueño, y no quiero compararme con el chico ZADRIGMAN, quiero ser uno de los muchos que podríamos hacer eso por esos amigos de 4 patas, gracias si me quieren apoyar pasaré a dejar la tarjeta

Corvid Intelligence Discord Server

I was recently fascinated by the possibility that crows and ravens are in their Stone Age. I've always been interested in the possibility of animal sapience and this is tempting. That being said I want more scientific people as well as laypersons in this server. Anyone's welcome, queer friendly with leftist-leaning leadership. This server is just getting started so be the first to join!

This is why intelligent animals don't have human intelligence

The Sapient Paradox asks "why there was such a long gap between emergence of genetically and anatomically modern humans and the development of complex behaviors?". That is, if humans were "us" by 100k years ago, why are some fundamental behaviors missing (or only regionally present) until about the end of the Ice Age? Behaviors as fundamental as the capacity for abstract thought, at least according to some anthropologists. (See: Archaeological evidence for modern intelligence)

The going explanation is that our psychology did not change, but our environment did. The Ice Age ended, populations increased, and this precipitated a phase change in the complexity of thought

ferrets outrank dogs and cats at problem solving

I have heard that ferrets are better at problem solving than cats and dogs but I can not seem to find the study on this (or really any done on domestic ferret intelligence), does anyone have a link?

How do I know if it is a sign of Intelligence or Stupidity?

Painted a christmas tree on the wall. A possum came in for a drink of water and spotting the 'tree' tried to climb it. Is recognition of a painting of a tree as a Tree intelligence, or is the inability to tell its not a tree a sign of stupidity?

Pet Roof Rat kept sneaking into my closet. So, I blocked the bottom, but she started climbing up the door and getting in at the top, instead. So I blocked that. Then, she started pulling the cloth out to get in. I put bells on to warn me, but she figured out how to remove them and got in anyway!
