6 Most Intelligent Animals, Cat Not Ranked, First Ranked Equivalent to a 6-Year-Old Human
For humans, intelligence is not the key to success, just enough is enough. Emotional intelligence is the most important. But for animals, intelligence is the most important. Different animals have different IQs, let's take a look at the 6 most intelligent animals, and cats are not on the list.
First animal: African Grey Parrot
Some people think that cats are very intelligent, but this is not the case. Cats' intelligence is not high. Its intelligence is even lower than that of dogs. The intelligence of an adult cat is at most equivalent to that of a human two or three-year-old child. The intelligence of a general cat is more like that of a one-year-old child. Now let's look at the truly intelligent animals. These birds are particularly intelligent. They can even 'talk' to humans.
Second animal: Crow
Many people have never heard of this kind of crow, and that's normal. This bird is not very beautiful, with black all over. But its intelligence is high. They often travel in pairs, and their behavior among each other is complex. Sometimes, they even have social activities. You know, even African Grey Parrots can't do this.
Third animal: Bottlenose Dolphin
There are many animals in the ocean with high intelligence, such as orcas. Their intelligence is very high. But we are not looking at them now, but at this animal called Bottlenose Dolphin. This animal likes to approach humans and is easy to tame. It is a 'star' in many circuses. And if you accidentally fall into the water when you go out to sea, and encounter it, don't be afraid, it will take the initiative to rescue you.
Fourth animal: Border Collie
Dogs' intelligence is also high, of course, just a few individuals. Among dogs, there are some dogs with low intelligence, such as Pugs, and some with high intelligence, such as Border Collies. Experts have found that Border Collies' intelligence is equivalent to that of a seven-year-old child. Border Collies are just dogs, but their intelligence is so high, even higher than that of African Grey Parrots.
Fifth animal: Gorilla
Of course, the most intelligent animal is undoubtedly the one that looks like us humans. This gorilla is one of them. The stupidest gorilla has a higher intelligence than Border Collies. They also use various tools, and they are just like us humans, with different fingerprints.
Sixth animal: Chimpanzee
These two kinds of great apes are not the same, in comparison, chimpanzees' intelligence is a little higher. Some chimpanzees can distinguish many colors and calls, and they can also use tools. Some particularly powerful chimpanzees can solve difficult arithmetic problems after training. Except for it, almost no animal can do this.
