African grey parrot is a beautiful bird with higher intelligence. The parrot brain is very similar to the primate brain: the parrot has a large area that acts as a piece of information superhigh between the two main areas of the brain.
You have lived or worked with parrots, but you know first hand that they are very intelligent. Many of us have learned many years ago from the research conducted by Irene Pepperberg and her dear colleague, Alex, that parrots showcase fine problem-solving skills, they can communicate their desires, they can count, subtract and subtract, and significantly they even the idea is to understand the other phenomenon of zero (more here and here) Naguli has established that they create and use their own equipment (more here).
Throughout the fauna, the African grey parrot cognitive intelligence, abilities and intellectual talent are matched only by corvids and primates.
According to a recent study, a group of neuroscientists in Canada blamed the brain region for parrots. This neural circuit is similar to that found in primates with humans and is the source of their intelligence.
“An area of the brain that plays a leading role in primate intelligence is called the pontine nuclei,” Christian Gutierrez-Ibiz, a postdoctoral fellow in the psychology department at the University of Alberta, said in a press release.
“This structure transfers information between the two largest areas of the brain, the cortex and the cerebellum, which allow for higher-order processing and more sophisticated behavior,” said Dr. Gutierrez-Ibiz.
In view of the cognitive properties of the African grey parrot intelligence is particularly famous for, the Corvid and Parrot birds, Dr. Gutiérrez-Ibez and his colleagues wondered whether the birds also enlarged the pontine nucleus.
However, when they looked more closely, they found that the avian pontine nucleus, even the most intelligent of the birds, was very small.
