Animal intelligence

Why does dolphin Olin voluntarily seek daily contact with a fisherman, how can chimpanzee Ayuma remember number sequences faster than humans, and why does cockatiel Budy grieve for his partner so much that he no longer forms such a close bond with any other?

For decades, Immanuel Birmelin has been researching the memory and emotional levels of animals, whether in lions and tigers, chimpanzees, or dogs and cats. One thing becomes clear: animals can make decisions, are capable of targeted problem-solving, and, like us, live in a world of feelings.

An exciting journey to wild and domestic animals that will amaze us and change our relationship with them.
