Animal Intelligence

Intelligence in Animals, published by the Reader's Digest (Oversize HC, 1994, $3)

I was expecting stories about apes, dolphins and the such, but not digger wasps, British blue tits, banded mangeese, and beavers. I was particularly amazed at the weaver birds and their elaborate nests built using complex knots. And I mean elaborate knots. How do they do it!

Look for this book in the nature section, avail. 3/17.
