Bees can link symbols to numbers, study finds
Don&#x27;t most animals have the ability to learn associations?  E.g. when the leash jingles the dog knows it is time to go for a walk.  Not sure this is the same as humans doing arithmetic.  Scientists seem quite anxious to make the jump from associations to human level abstract thought, for some reason.<p>Not saying it is impossible, but these kinds of studies seem very handwavy and not very careful with terminology.
