INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
0 sources for · 4 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that birds are unintelligent animals with limited cognitive abilities?

Unclear. Several sources partially contradict the claim, documenting complex cognition in corvids and parrots and problem-solving in birds, but none directly measures or settles the general intelligence of birds as a whole.
