Smart Chickens

According to a recent study, chickens do not just live in the present, but can anticipate the future and demonstrate self-control, something previously attributed only to humans and other primates.


Prior studies have found that neuron organization in chicken brains is highly structured and suggests that, like humans, chickens evolved an impressive level of intelligence to help improve their survival. Unlike humans, the chicken brain has a remarkable capacity to repair itself fully after trauma.
