The scientists from Zurich have conducted an interesting experiment. It became clear that dogs are able to manipulate people. Animals do this for their own benefit.
Carrying out of study
27 dogs and two trained people took part in the experiment. Three containers were put near the animals. In the first one, there was a sausage. In the second – special dog’s food. The third container was empty.
One person treated the animals, and the other one took the treats away. The four-legged participants of the experiment had to bring a certain person to the boxes.
Quickly catching the behavior of people, animals began to cunning. The person taking away the food, they led to an empty container. And more generous one – to the box with delicacy.
According to the scientists, dogs have shown extraordinary wit and flexibility.
