Researchers conducted 108 experiments on birds and mammals. The results showed that many of them had memorized how to respond to a particular stimulus. In some experiments, animals had to remember the order in which he lit the red and green lights. The researchers noted that the longer was the combination, the greater difficulty subjects coped with the tasks.

Also, experts have drawn attention to the fact that although animals can understand some words, some aspects of the language remain inaccessible to them — they are not able to distinguish the sentence “the dog bit the woman” from the “woman bitten by a dog”, because they do not perceive the sequence of words as something meaningful.

“The data presented in our study show that humans have developed an excellent ability to deal with sequential information. We believe that this can be an important piece of the puzzle that reveals the differences between humans and other animals,” says Magnus Enqvist, head of the Center for the study of cultural evolution at Stockholm University.

However, to underestimate the intelligence of animals is still not necessary, some studies show that singing birds are a lot like human speech, chimpanzees are capable of learning foreign languages, getting in another pack, and signs of “personality” can be detected even from animals such as sharks.
