Crows count out loud🐦‍⬛: An exciting new study trained crows to produce 1-4 vocalisations corresponding to a visual number & auditory cue, using different calls for each number. Use of the 'approximate number system' suggested #CompCogPapers #Science scim.ag/74f

Frans de Waal was an astute observer of animal behavior who challenged the world to see animals as individuals with personalities and emotions and maybe even the seeds of politics and morality. He inspired generations and will be greatly missed news.emory.edu/features/2024…

Emory primatologist Frans de Waal remembered for bringing apes ‘a little closer to humans’

Beginning with his groundbreaking 1982 book “Chimpanzee Politics,” Frans de Waal pioneered studies of primate cognition and shattered long-held ideas about what it means to be an animal — and a human.
