bottlenose dolphins have one of the highest ratios of brain size to body mass in the animal world, but does this necessarily mean they have a high level of intelligence? Animal intelligence is an area of research that still has a long way to go before being fully understood. How do you define intelligence and how do you measure it? Dolphin intelligence still requires further research, but so far studies have shown that dolphins are smart, highly social animals that can do some pretty tricky things :)! A lot of intelligence research has been conducted on captive animals, in which dolphins have shown that they are self-aware. This means that they are able to recognise themselves in a mirror, whereas other species would think they are looking at another animal.
