Animal cognition: crows spontaneously solve a metatool task.

Nicola Clayton1.   

Abstract

A recent study found that tool-manufacturing New Caledonian crows spontaneously solved a metatool task in which the birds used a tool to obtain a second, longer tool that could then be used to obtain food that was otherwise out of reach.
