I have not been able to find the answer to this question on a computer scavenger hunt for a college course that I'm taking and we are having a test on it tommorrow. I'm affraid it will be the first question on the test and I have no clue as to where to locate the answer. The question is stated like this, what mammal, other than humans, uses a computer? I've tried to find the answer wherever I can think of and I haven't been able to find it. help please

Great apes and chimps. One of the most famous examples is Koko the gorilla. The following is excerpted from the 1st link below (the other links also document computer use by chimps and great apes):
Koko's Macintosh
Kokos uses a standard Mac II enclosed in a special gorilla-proof housing. The enclosure is constructed of 1/2" polycarbonate and is bolted to the floor of Koko's trailer. Access to the computer is provided through a special touch screen designed to withstand the 2,000 pounds of force an excited gorilla can potentially generate. The computer has two video cards and is shared by Koko and the researcher.

I've seen dogs, monkeys, horses, and dolphins to name a few. Some are crude , an most of it has to do with the training they receive by the human mammal. Hope this helps.
