Smart Animals: Intelligence Evolved Twice!

🧠🤯Did you know intelligence may have evolved *twice* in vertebrates? Birds & mammals developed complex brains in separate evolutionary paths! Fascinating research on animal cognition. #Intelligence #Evolution #Animals #Brains #Science

  1. Intelligence evolved independently in birds & mammals.
  2. Complex neural circuits are key to this development.
  3. This suggests vertebrate intelligence isn't a single evolutionary story.
