Answer 1

The most intelligent, according to widespread belief, and most studied in relation to intelligence are the following species:

dolphins - most intelligent ocean species (playful, whales have brains of up to 10kg)

elephants - most intelligent herbivore species, also more intelligent than any carnivore (capable of art, tool use, playful, brains up to 5 kg)

apes - with humans being the most intelligent of them all (brains up to 2 kg)

carnivores - considered intelligent by pet owners, with cats, dogs and foxes mostly appreciated for their predatory cunning, necesary for survival (brains weight under 1kg, several hundred grams; 250g for lions, 70 g for dogs and 40 g for domestic cats)

other domesticated species, like horses, cows and pigs are considered intelligent. Some other, like oxen are famed for their herd animal stupidity (brains under 1 kg, several hundred grams)

parrots and crows - most intelligent birds (brains up to 30 grams, capable of many tricks)

sharks and rays - most intelligent fishes (brains up to 100g; 35 g for white shark; other fishes have brains few grams at most, though elephantnose fish has a very large brain (2g) for its size, and brain to body mass ratio 1:50, and is capable of sophisticated electrolocation)

cephalopodes - most intelligent invertebrates (brains up to 20 grams, larger than almost any non-mammial marine life)

Taking weight and length into attention the Human Race is the weakest creature in the international, that truly is actual. the reason the Human Race survived to on the present time is because of the fact those that did not get eaten by applying another animal had some extra beneficial concepts cells that ought to out- wit those different animals. It facilitates very lots that we are in a position to do trouble-free issues like %. up a stone and throw it, yet that doesn't artwork each and every of the time. hence we've been continuously attempting to locate a sparkling thank you to stay to inform the tale. some extra concepts cells help very lots. i think of a mistake has being made right here in that human beings continuously communicate approximately intelligence. i don't believe that the Human Race is extra smart than many different creatues ie the Whale, it fairly is a self prevailing Human argument. The Whale will not pop it is head out of the water and say "We take place to be cleverer than you", because of the fact it may not communicate any Human lanuage. in spite of how smart we predict of we are we've on no account found out to talk the lanuage of the different animal existence-kind the two. What fairly makes us different from the different animal is mind. To the terrific of my understanding of existence no different creature - even those with a matching shaped physique to ours, monkeys, apes - have ever composed a poem, stated existence the universe and each thing or progressed the means to write down. nevertheless in my concepts it proves that mind is thoroughly pointless if all we would have enjoyed to do became into stay to inform the tale. till you choose to argue that if we did not have the means to entertain ourselves we would all die of boredom or devote suicide. The be conscious 'fool' wisely refers to a guy or woman who has an IQ of much less then 60 and an fool-savant (now purely refered to as savant) has an IQ of under 40. what's the traditional IQ of a Fox? somewhat extra suitable than 40 methinks. whilst it is composed of feeding the birds, not something in need of a shot-gun has ever quit a Squrrial 'stealling ' the chicken nutrition. The warfare between human beings and Squirrials is raging international (ok that isn't be actual, yet) we've lost each and every conflict. can we arise with a chicken feeder that forestalls this bloody pest nicking the chicken nutrition? No!!! considering it is how smart we at the instant are not.

Answer 3

Whales are considered intelligent. And if you're going veggie only against smart animals, you might as well start eating people. It's a wonder how we're not extinct from our own stupidity.

Answer 4

The family of mammals is considered to be intelligent creature/animal. That's the wonder of MILK. But there are about 4260 species of mammals known. Apart from what u have mentioned already, well known (and edible) are: Elephants and whales, cattle, camels, sheeps, kangaroos...

It depends on ur culture but the following are intelligent mammals and edible too: rhinocerous, cheetah, giraffe,...

Rabbits are mammals but i dont consider them intelligent. so u can consider 'em on ur dinner plate.
