Abstract
Animal cognition is the title given to the study of the mental capacities of non-human animals. It has developed out of comparative psychology but has also been strongly influenced by the approach of ethology, behavioral ecology, and evolutionary psychology. The alternative name cognitive ethology is therefore sometimes used; and much of what used to be considered under the title of animal intelligence is now though of under this heading. In practice, animal cognition mostly concerns mammals, especially primates, cetaceans and elephants, besides Canidae, Felidae and rodents, but research also extends to non-mammalian vertebrates such as birds including parrots, corvids, and pigeons, as well as lizards and fish, even to non-vertebrates such as cephalopods.
