  • I saw this recently which rather blew my mind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_8hPcnG­eCI

    It's good, but it isn't astonishing to me, as there are so many stories about animals using tools, making inferences, and generally doing things that only humans supposedly do. Simply put, their minds work in exactly the same way in principle as ours, but they have different strengths and weaknesses, e.g. much better proprioception, the very obvious athletic strengths like being able to fly 10,000 miles every summer or be extremely strong, etc., which influence what they do and what they consequently think about. They are endlessly fascinating and we know so very little about them.
