    Animal Behaviour Article

    Quite an interesting article on the National Geographic website, it's quite long (8 pages) but still really interesting. It's amazing how we're still learning so much about animal behaviour, I guess because for a long time it wasn't really accepted that they could be smart and think for themselves, like people could.

    Interesting article, though.

    Ah, I was learning about that parrot early last year in an Animal Behaviour lecture

    Pity the rest of the module still makes out that animals are automatons, just reactors to stimuli. /sigh
