Animals have different ways of thinking and behaving, like learning, remembering, and communicating. Scientists study how animals use their minds and how these abilities evolved. They look at things like memory, problem-solving, and social behavior in animals. Recent research shows that animals can remember past events, think about their own thoughts, and work together with others. Animals also have a sense of space, time, and numbers. Some animals even use tools to help them find food. This research helps us understand how animals think and how their minds work.
