Dolphins are the smartest animals on planet. They are sometimes thought to be even smarter than humans. Dolphins were once believed to be terrestrial animals that slowly moved to sea which is a more vast place to dwell. They are smart coz they are capable of producing ultra-sound which is a faster means of communication. They perform well when in jeopardy. Trained dolphins are even used by the US Army to detect radioactivity under the sea. Dolphins are also trained to recognize sea mines deep on the ocean floor. They are intelligent conquerers of the sea.

Answer 7

apes and monkeys, dolphins and some whales, dogs, cats, crows, ravens, parrots, pigs, squirrels, octopuses. Dolphins swim and live in highly organized family groups called pods. Females assist others in giving birth. They hunt cooperatively. They talk with one another—whistling, quacking, squeaking. We have taught dolphins sign language, which they interpret correctly—both the sign meaning and how sign order affects meaning.

Cats and dogs match or surpass all animals except apes, some monkeys, and dolphins.


Ravens, crows, and parrots solve problems and are highly social creatures. Ravens can talk with each other, count to 9 (compared with 4 for chimps), and steal. They play—sliding down long snow banks, for example.

People have trained pigs to find truffles. Mediaeval English used pigs to poach (pointing and retrieving) since commoners were allowed only tiny dogs. A researcher reported seeing an old woman in southern India speak to her pig, which immediately rounded up her buffalo herd like a well-trained collie.

Squirrels are highly intelligent animals and will investigate anything, especially if it resembles food. Theda Kane raised an orphan squirrel in the United Kingdom. "I had to give up wearing stud earrings as Oz kept taking them out of my earlobes and putting them in his mouth. He also methodically removed all the buttons from my favorite cardigan and persistently stole my cigarette lighter," she says.

Boneless octopuses can ooze through a hole as small as one of their eyes. Being boneless makes orientation challenging. They’ve developed phenomenal memories to compensate. They’re clever too. Investigators tell many such stories as this one: An octopus spies a transparent bottle containing live crabs and quickly puzzles out how to open it. What’s more, she remembers solutions and applies them to different problems.

Answer 8

The elephant. I saw a show where a pride of lions killed a baby elephant. The elephants waited until all the lions left the den then got their revenge by killing all the cubs in that den but walked by other dens because it was not the one that harmed them.

The human being. We are the only animals that can reason and make decisions based on thought and logic.

Dolphins have great memories. Some can paint too. Some dolphins even understand sign language. They are beautiful loving creatures.
