Trainable Animals
name Kathrine
status student
grade 6-8
location OH
Question - I am doing research on animal intelligence. I am
having trouble finding a list of the least and most intelligent or
trainable animals. Can you help?

Hi Kathrine!
That is a tough question, mainly because of the extent of the question.
It might be good to consider narrowing your focus to a specific
species or group of animals. For instance, you could look into the
specific dog breeds with respect to their ability to be trained. Also, it's
important to
note that ability to be trained and intelligence aren't always one in the
same.
Sorry not to be able to answer, but I think with a bit more focus you
could come up with a really interesting topic to look into.
Best wishes,
