Description
Polar bear from Seaworld in Queensland in Australia just had a real fun play and now he is just chilling.
Polar bears may be just as smart as some apes, according to research scientist Alison Ames. Their success at hunting seals in a dynamic arctic environment is one sign of their brain power.
"This is learned behavior and reveals that polar bears are very intelligent animals. They are highly cognitive creatures that top the food chain in polar regions. You have to be very clever to do that. Hunting and trapping a seal is no easy matter."
Ames has watched polar bears in zoo settings smash open ice blocks in order to extract embedded fish. And she has seen bears stack heaps of plastic pipe that they later knock over in elaborate games.
