If you are interested in how domestication has changed the cognitive abilities of animals, this new paper on goat cognition by our own @GoatsThatStare and @niebgnal might be something for your reading list. 🐐🐐🐐

Christian Nawroth@GoatsThatStare

New goat cognition research is incoming!! 🐐🐐🐐 We assessed whether domestication or selection objective shape goats’ ability to use physical and social cues. The results were quite surprising – why? Follow this thread 1/8 Paper link 👇 nature.com/articles/s4159…
