Animal memory: rats can answer unexpected questions about past events.

Michael J Beran1.   

Abstract

A new study has found that rats are able to answer, in a hippocampus-dependent manner, unexpected questions about whether they recently ate food or not. The results highlight potential shared mechanisms for remembering personal events in rats and humans, and offer new insights into the nature of animal memory.
