Some might think of the lion as all brawn and no brains, but they’re so much more. Dr. Natalia Borrego studies lions and designs experiments to test their intelligence and better understand their skills. Lions are social animals living in small pride groups containing both males and females. They understand problem-solving, can cooperate with each other, and have no permanent dominance hierarchy. Part of the "Animal IQ" series.
