Pigeon intelligence
Pigeon intelligence experiments highlight riddles of
animal intelligence. In experiments it was found that:
- Pigeons did not do well at the categorization of certain man-made and three-dimensional objects.
- Pigeons seem to require more information than humans for constructing a three-dimensional image from a plane representation.
- Pigeons seem to have difficulty in dealing with problems involving classes of classes. Thus they do not do very well with the isolation of a relationship among variables, as against a representation of a set of exemplars.
