Chimpanzees are one of the smartest animals in the world. An example would be that chimpanzees can recognize their own reflection in a mirror; while other animals would not. There are several other animals, including all of the great apes, that can pass the "mirror test" as well, but chimps are smart. They seem to possess at least some of the theory of mind where they can act as if they know what another animal can see and how that animal will react to a given action (i.e. maybe they can reason what that other animal is thinking, and therefore that that other animal can think). However, in terms of using human cues, chimps seem to be worse than dogs. They do seem to know how to cooperate to achieve a goal and when they should cooperate.
