Crows, often dismissed as noisy and unlucky, exhibit remarkable intelligence and social behavior, according to neurophysiologist Andreas Nieder from the University of Tubingen. His recent study published in Science Advances highlights crows' ability to discern shapes by focusing on geometric irregularities. Through a series of experiments, these birds demonstrated an impressive capacity to identify subtle differences between similar shapes, reinforcing their cognitive prowess. Even without rewards, the crows consistently recognized the outlier shapes, suggesting an innate understanding of geometric distinctions.
Crows, often misunderstood, have shown impressive spatial cognition, particularly in distinguishing shapes using geometric irregularities, demonstrating their remarkable intelligence and cognitive skills.
In the experiments, crows learned to identify outlier shapes among similar figures by spontaneous discrimination, showcasing their cognitive abilities in geometry without needing additional training.
