I assume that's removing primates from the running where there are probably a dozen species to mention.

Crows as well. One radio report I recall discussed how they not only recognize human faces but can inform others about individuals that threaten them. The researcher who was featured has to wear a mask when he is performing experiments or else he risks being attacked by other birds while walking around campus...

Can someone post a TLDR?

For the downvoters (3 of you): it's perfectly reasonable to ask for a TLDR, so STOP FUCKING DOWNVOTING. The article was quite long. I may be interested in reading it, but I didn't have time (actual work and life stuff to do, you know). However if I can read an abstract of the study (or at least a TLDR) I can get the info and decide whether I want to read the full article.

It's three pages. Also the sentences that either contain bold words or are offset make a pretty good TL;DR. But again, three pages; the article's already a short summary of several pieces of research. (Don't get so upset about people downvoting a non-contributing comment. It's not personal.)
