The 6 Smartest Animals in the World
https://art.tn/view/714/en/the_6_smartest_animals_in_the_world/
Human beings have the tendency to feel overly secure in our position at the top of the food chain. We take for granted the fact that we are the most intelligent animals on the planet without ever actually considering what it is that sets us apart. Other animal species possess some of those traits, and some exhibit them all. we will discuss the 6 smartest animals in the world.
Octopi
The octopus is the only invertebrate animal to make our list of the world’s most intelligent animals.
Captive octopi have been observed using high-order planning with several steps to escape from captivity, and others are able to damage objects even outside of their tank by intentionally splashing water onto them repeatedly. These cephalopods are deceptively clever!
African Grey Parrots
The African grey parrot takes the highest avian spot on this list of most intelligent animals.
Estimated to be as smart as a five-year-old human, these parrots not only learn human speech, but they can master an impressively large vocabulary.
Elephants
Elephants are frequently referenced for their long memory, but they are also one of the smartest animals. Elephants have a complicated social structure and have been witnessed participating in funeral rituals for departed members of their family as well as mourning their loss. Elephants also use tools and medicate themselves; they will eat the leaves of certain plants to cure illness and even induce labor!
Chimpanzees
Our closest genetic relative comes in third place on this list of the most intelligent animals. Chimpanzees share 98 percent of their DNA with humans, and they are native to sub-Saharan Africa. They are expert tool users, and chimps have been seen improvising tools from available items in order to make what they need. These great apes also use psychological techniques; within their own families, they will manipulate others to accomplish certain tasks.
Bottlenose Dolphins
Many people believe that the bottlenose dolphin is the smartest animal, but it’s ranked number two on this list. How smart is a dolphin? Honestly, it depends; there are over eight species of dolphin, but only the bottlenose dolphin made the cut here. They have the largest brain size among all their relatives. Aside from being easily trainable, dolphins are able to recognize themselves in mirrors, notice unfamiliar marks on their body in a reflection, recognize images on television, and have an impressive memory.
Orangutans
Orangutans come in the first place here for a very interesting reason. Much like chimpanzees, the orangutan is able to use tools, learn sign language, and have complex social structures that involve rituals.
It’s no surprise that the orangutan is so smart considering that it shares over 97 percent of its DNA with humans.
They can be trained to use a hammer and nails, and orangutans even learned to use a hose to siphon liquids.
