Dolphins can teach, learn, cooperate, grieve and do many other impressively brainy things! They have elongated spindle neurons in a similar part of the brain to humans. It’s rare for animals to have a brain like this. Research suggests dolphins also possess self-awareness. This is supported by their ability to recognize themselves in mirrors. Talk about smart mammals! #WednesdayWisdom
