These Are The Smartest Animals In The World. #9 Took Me By Surprise
By Stacey Leigh
When we think about the most brilliant animals, we have a few that come to mind. We know dolphins have advanced cognitive abilities and can be trained to communicate. We know about Koko, the gorilla capable of expressing complex emotions in sign language. And of course, we all know that deep down, our dogs and cats are Mensa material.
These 10 animals might not have the reputation for being the best and the brightest, but these animals have brilliant skills that you've never heard of.
1. Raccoons can pick complicated locks in fewer than 10 tries. Not only that, but these bandits can remember how to pick certain locks years later.
2. Crows can take on a simple science project like water displacement. They are thought to have the intelligence of a 7-year-old human child.
5. Sheep hold board meetings: entire herds will meet together and make executive decisions together. Sheep are one of few mammals able to recognize color patterns.
