Ayumu the chimpanzee has made headlines around the world for his ability to beat humans on memory tests, in both speed and accuracy. Does Ayumu’s ability force us to reconsider our assumptions about human superiority to other primates?

Interesting vid. If only we didn’t live at a materialist dominated time, we might know what else these creatures are also capable of.
My dog knew when my brother was coming home. He worked shifts and sometimes he was away for only a couple of hours, sometimes ten hours. My dog would get up on the back of the couch and look for the window five minutes before he got home. She knew things about people and the weather and I’ve no idea how she did it. Animals have superpowers, spiders, birds, sharks, octopus. Who knows what else they can do?
