FACT OR FICTION: Generally recognized as intelligent, these mammals that live in the sea may be smarter than you think. They live in pods and help each other raise their families. This one appears to be an ambassador to us.

In The News

Researchers from the University of California Berkeley used recording equipment to follow electrode placement on the cortical surface that provided a clearer view of thinking patterns and how the prefrontal cortex coordinates your brain’s response to perception.

Using patients who suffer from epilepsy, researchers were able to follow brain activity as it detected, interpreted and responded to a stimuli by activating motor areas before the patients were aware how they would respond.  This increasing knowledge of how the brain functions may lead to improvements in treatment protocols for patients with neurological disease.

Fact or Fiction?

Unlike other animals, dolphins are extremely intelligent. They can communicate between themselves and with humans.  They live in pods or families of up to 12 individuals and help to raise their young together. They have excellent eyesight, hearing and can locate objects using echolocation. And, believe it or not, the Orca - also called the Killer Whale - is actually a species of dolphin.  This video demonstrates how one wild dolphin could recognize the signals from this diver and submitted to his care.

Have a wonderful day!
