Intelligent
animals
Here is the list of 10 Most Intelligent Animals in The World. Along
with natural evolution, animals have undergone any adaptation to environmental
conditions to sustain life. Changes were seen in the process-process is in
search of food or solving problems that they face when hunting for food or
escape from the pursuit of their enemies. So many animals are used below as the
object of the experiment.
1- HUMANS
Human is one of the
amazing creations of nature and Yes! Humans are still the number one smartest
species on Earth. Why i counted Humans in smart animals? After all human is
also a social animal, right?
2- DOLPHINS
Most of the tricks
that they are taught in captivity are actually behavior that they would
naturally engage in on their own. They love to race, play, and enjoy life to
the fullest extent. They even have their own language that mankind has yet to
understand. Like all civilized creatures, the mothers stay with their young
into the young reach adolescence providing them with love and guidance.
3- GREAT APES
When speaking of
great apes this includes chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans. They have
physical orientation and brain chemistry similar to humans. NASA at one time
used chimpanzees instead of astronauts when there was a dangerous mission.
There is one chimpanzee in Japan that can use a computer and gorillas have even
been taught sign language. Orangutans live in complex and familial
relationships.
4- ELEPHANTS
They have the
capability to establish long term friendships. They are also able to remember
and recognize their friends both elephant and humans years later. They even
exhibit the ability to empathize, which is illustrated by their compunction to
bury the dead. They have used tools, exist in families, and exhibit problem
solving.
5-PARROTS
Birds are very smart
and are the only animal on this list, except for humans, that can actually hold
a conversation. Some know hundreds of words and are capable of retaining some
words and using them in response to situations intelligently.
6- CROWS
These birds are wily
creatures and have been known to take a walnut, fly out into traffic, drop it,
and wait for a passing car to run over the walnut and crack the nut open. Then
they fly down and enjoy the nut. There is a crow called the New Caledonian Crow
that has the ability to use crudely fashioned tools such as knives created from
cut grass as it hunts for food.
7- RATS
Although rats are
considered nothing more than disease carriers they are one of the most
inventive creatures on earth. The reason that scientists prefer to use rats and
mice for experiments is that their brains are capable of finding shortcuts and
loopholes in mazes.
8- THE PIGEON
The pigeon is a very
social creature and can tell the difference between other pigeons. They also
use their behavior to create responses. They are also capable of going long
distances and not forgetting how to get there and back without getting lost.
9- PIGS
When a pig is
introduced to a new environment it can become devastating to the native species
because they have high survival ability and are very adaptable to whatever
situation they are put in. For example, if you make them live in mud, they will
do so, but if you give them a clean environment, they will keep their
environment clean.
10- SQUIRRELS
Yes, squirrels do
look like a rat with a bushy tail but they do have hidden depths that rats and
mice do not. They are capable of successfully hunting for food in many
intriguing places that most other species would not even consider. They are
also capable of planning ahead by having secret food storage places so they are
prepared for a long winter when it would be hard to find food.
11- Portia Labiate Jumping Spider
This species is a member of the genus Portia and the smallest creatures
in the list. It is also known as the White-whiskered Portia, their living in
critical areas and secondary forests in Africa, Asia, and Australia. This
spider has shown the ability to learn in laboratory tests and the bug has been
labeled the smartest in the world. They performs surprisingly well in various
tasks of solving problems. One of their skills to fool your opponent is in
their food, which is caused by the sounds from the nest until you are caught in
the trap. If Portia had been found of this spider before, it will remember what
the rhythm pattern used to achieve success. Portia had large eyes and have been
seen using instinctive behavior extraordinary. The spider that planned to use
trial-and-error approach to hunting and cognitive showed a strong base.
When the prey comes and goes, the spider will sit and wait for hours to
have perfect moment to strike. Then, plan ahead and understanding that will
eventually eat again. This spider has also shown signs of selective attention
by identifying a particular object and prey on others.
12- Border Collie
Border collie is widely regarded as the most intelligent dog breed in
the world. They usually spend their time in tending sheep and cattle handling
various forms, but also make great pets. With physical exercise and various
forms of mental stimulation this dog is the fastest way to learn. Offspring
originated in Scotland, Welsh, and English border and the dogs make a direct
impact on the agricultural industry. It has been determined that in certain
areas collie Australian Outback who are trained to do five times the amount of
work that can manage people. Border collie dog sports are dominated over all
breeds. They excel in the high jump, utility classes, fly-ball, and even can
take first place in dog dancing competitions. They have an extraordinary sense
of smell and are widely regarded as the dogs are great. They can be trained as
drug dogs, or in search and rescue as well. This dog obviously will recognize
you as an individual personality, they will learn your habits, anticipate what
will happen next, and find a way to get what they wanted.
13- North Pacific Giant Octopus
These creatures live in the depths of the sea. They are family owned
and cephalopods mollusks class. All types of cephalopods are known to have
intellectual ability exceptional. Octopus is considered the most intelligent
invertebrate life. In the experimental conditions of these animals have shown
short-and long-term memory. They have an extraordinary observation learning and
problem solving skills. Octopus nervous system has a very large, but only
partially found in their brains. About two-thirds of an octopus, as neurons can
be found on the rope around and the arm. There are arms that have a very large
autonomy. They are masters of mimicry and camouflage. They are masters of
escape in the catch. This animal is very keen eyesight, sense of touch, and
very fast. There was a report from the North Pacific Giant Octopus reach 600
pounds, with a range of hands 30 feet.
14- Rhesus Monkey
Besides humans, rhesus monkeys are the most extensive in the world.
Rhesus monkeys are known as the intelligence and because it has been widely
used in biological and medical research. It has great memory, the ability to
learn, and make their own decisions. They use the facial expressions very
similar and understood by humans. Rhesus Monkeys have demonstrated suicidal
tendencies, planning attacks, and highly complex social animals. They have a
detailed system of shared vocal similarities to human communication. Research on
the genome sequencing of the Rhesus Monkey completion in 2007, so that the
second non-human primates to do this. This shows that humans and apes share 93%
of their genetic DNA. Humans and apes chromosomes mosaic with each other.
