[QUOTE="Peregrini, post: 51107, member: 2670"] Perhaps one of the most famous smart animals was Alex the African Gray Parrot. [media=youtube]sqPvsB9-_J0[/media] Related story: [url]http://www.123compute.net/dreaming/knocking/alex.html[/url] I can't say these animals have consciousness but there is certainly something extra going on in these exceptional cases. There is no scientific basis for my following statement. It is just a fanciful comparison but I would "guesstimate" that what Alex is accomplishing with a walnut sized brain would be the equivalent to a human having total recall of the entire Encyclopedia Britannica. Just as we have Mathematical or Musical Savants in humans, perhaps there are savants among other species? [/QUOTE]
