Reposted by Jasmin FirozpoorValeria Mazza @valmazza.bsky.social · 07/11/2025Really proud of this one. Our first study on innovative problem-solving in free-ranging small mammals is fresh off the press of Animal Cognition rdcu.be/eOHl3. We looked at what happens with human disturbance in a protected area...without disturbing our most precious collaborators! 13210

In a new study in Current Biology, we showed our cockatoos innovated a new way to flavour their food: they dunk noodles in blueberry soy yoghurt.
