This study shows that macaques exhibit the Bouba-Kiki effect, suggesting sound-shape correspondences are a conserved vertebrate trait that may have influenced the evolution of symbolic communication.

This study shows that hornbills adjust their response speed based on the complexity of patterned-strings problems, with slower responses for more challenging configurations.

This study shows Oriental pied hornbills solve vertical string-pulling tasks using causal understanding without trial-and-error, challenging previous assumptions about avian cognition.

This study examines how social context affects delayed gratification in New Caledonian crows and Eurasian jays, finding species differences in reward selection under varying social conditions.
