Katharina Jakob - Why Whales Know Foreign Languages

Animalistically intelligent: how animals make plans, learn and pass on what they know

Orcas that learn the language of dolphins, or squirrels that can describe approaching human beings down to the colour of their T-shirts by whistling: animals think, plan and communicate, use tools and adapt them to their own needs, are altruistic, imagine the future – and some are even aware of their ego.

Amazing? Yes, but true! Katharina Jakob's impressive tales from the unknown world of animals contain the latest scientific insights – amazing and entertaining.

"The science journalist Katharina Jakob integrates her impressive stories from the unknown world of animals with the latest scientific research – astonishing and entertaining."
