Mickey Pardo, PhD
Registrace 18. 09. 2023
I'm a biologist specializing in animal behavior and wildlife ecology, and have over 14 years of experience studying how animals communicate with one another and what this can tell us about their cognitive abilities. I have a PhD in animal behavior from Cornell University and completed a National Science Foundation postdoctoral fellowship at Colorado State University. I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. This channel focuses on the science behind animal intelligence and emotions, as well as other topics related to animal rights, veganism, and the problems with animal agriculture.

Correction: 4:30 The balls in this study were actually yellow, not red (red plastic squares were used in a different experiment in the same paper), and the chicks imprinted on 5 balls together, not just a single ball.

Sheep are cool but damn they taste good 🤤
I'm with you..💚♥️
This video is gonna blow up on a random Wednesday in 5 years.
I hope so!
💚💚💚💚💚🌱
💔🗡️👽☹️
Awesome & great work! Animals are in fact empathetic sentient beings who DO LOVE their babies!
Thank you for this informative film. It is so sad what the dairy industry does to cows their calves and male calves via the veal industry. I really hope that the dairy industry will end in the near future because it is so cruel and destructive to the environment in terms of pollution, deforrestation and carbon emissions.
Thanks, I very much hope so too! The more people who stop buying dairy products the faster we can end this outdated and cruel industry
Amazing, while it should be common sense that animals, especially mammals, form stong bonds with their children, and taking them away causes distress and harm, it was great to see the scientific evidence. It's not just us projecting human feelings on other animals. They literally suffer in ways very similar to us!
I really appreciate that you bring a diversity of perspectives in from care experts!
Thanks! I'd love to have more people with expertise in other areas feature in future videos too!
Great info. Thanks for your expertise!
Thanks for watching!
We want more content like this
Thanks for watching! Do you mean more videos about animal intelligence/animal rights in general? Or more CZcams shorts specifically? FYI I just posted a new 11-minute video about maternal love in cows.
More videos about animal rights in general

Great content. Buying eggs is so unnecessary.
Thanks! Couldn't agree more
Poor chickens. 😢
Amazing work!! Thank you for your scientific work and contribution. Bravo!
Amazing work! Thank you and @DrFarazHarsini who show us this video.
Ok so lets get this to legislation and all go vegan
Love the work you are doing, thank you! Shout out to Jewel at Danzig's Roost!
❤❤
Such a great video!
Minor correction: in the study on chicks doing arithmetic (Rugani et al. 2009), the balls were actually yellow, not red, and the chicks imprinted on five balls rather than a single ball. It has no impact on the conclusions but I wanted to correct that mistake!
Wow😮 this is an incredibly needed analysis. These animals killed for our foods our intelligent conscious creatures that deserve to live out their lives and experience a fulfilling life, not to be killed for an unsustainable meal. I know many people who work in animal agriculture, would like to ignore this but you lay out a lot of great evidence! Thank you!
Thanks, I appreciate the comment!
Wow, I just watched your new video, and I have to say, those chickens are smarter than I am! 😂 Seriously though, your content amazes me, the flow is superb, and your voice is easy to listen to. Thanks for making this video, and congrats on posting your first! 🎉 Can't wait to see what you come up with next. Keep up the fantastic work!
Thank you! Stay tuned for some new videos in the near future!
Keep up the great work :)
Amazing work! Although it’s good how we are learning how incredibly sentient these beings are, it makes it even sadder to when we see how much they are exploited.
Wish there were less chickens in factory farms and more cuddling with me. 😢
Great & well-detailed video! I LOVED the simple animations in the vid. Keep up the great work!
Thank you! Those animations took a while to figure out how to do!
This video was incredible! I know how much time it took to make and I know how busy you are! So thank you! This might be one of the best videos made to compare human and non-human animal intelligence.
Thank you! And thanks for encouraging me to make it in the first place.
@@MickeyPardoPhD Very interesting video. I'm happy you made it! 🌱🌱
People call chickens unintelligent, but clearly they are very smart. Amazing that baby chicks can do math! Thanks for sharing this research 🐤 and for highlighting their mistreatment by the egg and meat industries.
This is incredibly informative. Bravo!!
Thanks for making this video!
Mind blowing! 😮
