better. However‚ this is not the case. There are animals that can do all of these things. Humans are not the only organisms that use their brain. In fact‚ chimpanzees have been reported to be better at retaining information than college students (“Chimps Are Smarter Than Us”). A test conducted on chimpanzees and college students’ memories revealed chimpanzees to be more successful at memorization. Many studies and experiments have shown that a primate’s intelligence could rival a human’s. For example

systems that humans do. Dr. Marc D. Hauser‚ an expert on animal communication at Harvard says that: “In animals brains‚ by contrast‚ each neural system seems to be locked in place and cannot interact freely with others.” He also adds an example that chimps are able to read each others goals‚ they can do a lot of political strategies when organized in groups‚ but of course‚ they can’t speak to each other due to the fact that their neural systems can’t connect these social interaction to language.

ANIMALS‚ HUMANS‚ AND LANGUAGE Anders Holmberg One of the properties we have as humans which makes us different from other species is a capacity for acquiring and using a form of language which is far more complex than the language‚ or system of communication‚ of any other species. This capacity has been crucial for the evolution of human technology and human society‚ providing us with a huge advantage over other species. The advantage derives not just from the fact that human language is a
