Latest findings on animal intelligence

I just found this fascinating article, with the latest evidence about animal intelligence and animal morality. In particular, note that a chimp's memory for a list of numbers is superior to a human's, and that rats gave priority to freeing a colleague over rewards:

This is a wonderful fascinating article, LPC.
I particularly like the test where the rat releases his friend, so they can both share and enjoy the chocolate!
I'd have him to dinner any time! LOL
