#Tooluse in #bovids so far was underestimated until a recent #scientific #study highlighted Austrian #cow #Veronika and her #flexible #purposeful self-#scrarching tool handling. Indicating that further studies might show similar potentials also in other #Bovidae taxa.
The authors A. J. Osuna-Mascaró & Alice M.I. Auersperg (2026) published their findings in #CurrentBiology.

internet was down where I live from late Sunday until late Tuesday, after I went to sleep. So I missed the newest episode of strange animals, but will listen as soon as my headphones recharge. @KateShaw has made a great episode on the gaur, the swamp wallaby, and the tahkin. I've no idea why the swamp wallaby fits in with the other two.
