Moments of Animal Genius That Will Amaze You

Animals are far more intelligent than most people give them credit for 🤩

Hairy Houdini is my favorite 😂 He wasn't trying to escape, he just wanted to walk around.

The APOPO hero rats also can detect tuberculosis in areas that have no medical equipment to test people for it. They have saved many lives, improving detection rates over regular methods by 40%. They are also being trained to detect animal parts from poaching. The best friend many people can have!

Few years ago my rooster was making a loud crowing noise at 2am so I went outside and was shocked my hen was injured and was underneath him. My thought was he hurt her but I was wrong my rooster was pointing up at the culprit it was a racoon I got my broom and hit the raccons head. My dad came out and saw me hitting the raccoon he chased it. We found out how the racoon came in the coop there was a small hole my dad patched it up and my hen who was injured I brought her in cleaned her injuries put her in one of my baskets in my bed room my rooster was making sad crow noises worried for her. A few weeks of recovery I brought her back to him, he was so happy to see her. Sadly a year later he passed away and one year later my hen passed away I've buried both next to each other. He loved my hen very much she was so small and he was a big boy sad they didn't had baby chicks since she so small though

I have a cat named Raven and she will sometimes point at door to tell me that she wants to go outside she and would also point with her front paw and if I'm not paying attention to her she will tap me with her paw then would point at the door again

My African Grey parrot mimics things FLAWLESSLY. The microwave beeping, the squeaky hinge on our front door, and apparently I say, "Son of a b!tch!" a lot because now he does, too. As a teen, he would yell my name just like my mom from across the house. I'd be sleeping in too late, as teens do, and I'd hear my mom hollering, "Miiii-chael? Miiii-chael?!" In my half-asleep state I'd loudly grumble, "WHAT?" only to realize it was Barney. He also laughs exactly like me, so when I'd chuckle and tell him to shut up, he'd mock me by laughing at me . . . in my own voice. He also dances and flies up to the ceiling fan to ride it like a merry-go-round, among hundreds of other things. I quit trying to lock him in his cage --- which I always hated anyway --- because he'd figure out how to get latches and doors open in a matter of hours. He just hangs out between his cage and the big ole perch my carpenter grandfather made for him. Sometimes I wake up with him standing on my pillow, shoulder, or head. He's such a cutie.

So many animals have intelligence and comprehension far beyond what they're given credit for. And I sound like a crazy cat lady when I say this but I have experiences that have shown me that my cats communicate about things that they learn and do. It's AMAZING!

The Rottweiler that shakes his head yes and no, and the German Shepard that saved the little boy were awesome!

Remember to be kind if you're training an animal. Yes, they can do amazing things but believe it or not they have feelings too. Monkeys and apes may be smart but they're still wild animals that deserve respect. They also deserve to be free.

As a wise man once said: "For all of nature's wonder and beauty,it is also unpredictable."

My former husband was an avid fisherman until we decided to collect young local fish and put them in a fish tank. We were amazed by their friendships and how much they trusted us to take down their water levels each week to clean and refill their tank. One had a bladder issue, which could ultimately kill them because it destroys their balance. We added medication to the water and the affected fish swam into my hand so I could keep it upright. My husband soon realized that fish aren’t dumb at all. They greeted us every day and he never fished again.

when u revisiting a channel u used to watch is a good feeling

Saddest thing about dogs is they're so amazing that it makes hole in our heart when they leaves you forever

Animals are highly intelligent

I had friends who had an African Grey named Knor. An incredible bird. He could speak, knowingly, in 3 languages (and swear in all 3!); answered simple questions intelligently; sing in tune to songs, and was just so clever

A couple here taught me something I was not aware of. Those rodents! That German shepherd at the end, what a good and great boy he was. There was an incident some years back, were an ape of some sort, I think it was a gorilla showed intellegence and empathy. When a young boy fell down into it's enclosure and was knocked out, the gorilla picked the boy up, oh so gently and held and stroked him until the zoo staff could get inside the enclosure to rescue the boy. It was very touching to see at the time.

We had two separate black cats learn to ring the doorbell when they wanted in. With the first one we thought someone was ringing the doorbell and running. Until we saw him. We caught on quicker with the other. They didn’t learn from each other.

Corvids are one of the smartest birds out there. They are capable of self awarness, they understand the concept of gifts, they remember both kind & awful people and when sb helps them they'll not only show up once in a while to say hi but they'll lead other injured crows to that person because they know that human being is trust worthy. Another thing was discovered when the scientists put two bottles with treats in it. It could be reached with a straight wire. Then they presented the bottless and wires to two crows that didn't know each other. However there was one straight wire and the second one was bent which wouldn't help the crows reach the meat. The scientists expected birds to fight for the straight wire to get the treats, but imagine their surprise when both crows went for the bent wire. One held it down and the other unbent it. They both received treats. They came to a peaceful solution without any fighting or verbal communication. They are the only known animal using tools to make other tools. Crows have regional accents and dialects which they can adapt. They also regularly visit their parents after leaving the nest. They also help to take care of their younger siblings for up to 5 years before moving out. And to top everything off: There was an experiment where corvids were presented a box containing a treat. They could have it right then and there or they could wait a little bit longer and potentially get more treats (it was not granted though). Corvids chose to wait. The scientists were baffled because human children are most likely to get the sweets the second it's presented to them and not wait to receive more. Heck, even some adults have problems with that. And the birds had will strong enough to restrain themselves from getting a treat too early. And now time for cats: Did you know that they do not meow to each other? Adult cats meow only to humans. It's a behaviour they adapted from children. By meowing they mimic the crying of a baby and cats use that to get some attention or extra treats. Nature is WAY more interesting when you learn all the cool facts about it ^^ Like about the gay & lesbian penguins or lionesses with manes or parthonogenesis in animals or change of gender that happends in some species (like the clownfish). The nature is f-ing EPIC.

There also was an ape (I think it was a gorilla) who learned to communicate with a comuter using several symbols for different words. Once he told his caretaker that he wanted a cat. He got one, he took loving care of it and expressed his sadness when it passed away.
