In “Wiener Knowledge” on Krone.tv, three researchers analyze the latest knowledge of bird research. The issue of animal information for example. Behavioral researcher Sonja Kleindorfer: “You often say ‘the stupid goose’. But that is not true. Because intelligence can also be measured by the type of communication.” Cognitive biologist Alice Auersperg confirms: “You should not underestimate the birds. For example, our parrot Alex answered all the questions we asked him with the right words.”
And she adds: “We have also asked ourselves scientifically: birds also have a physical concept? And offered beetles as a reward if they disappear the built -in -trap, in the maggots in one pipe. And that worked in most cases.” The type of language also differs.
Cognitive biologist Sabine Tebbich explains: “The Twittering of Birds has the game call and the check -call. The check group means” here I am. And where are you? ” The birds then play together.
There is a clear hierarchy within the geese. Kleindorfer explains: “There are influencer goals that many followers have. These are the brave geese. And they look at people very well.”
