Previous research has shown that cockatoos are better tool makers than chimps.
And there’s more. A recent paper on 18 palm cockatoos (Probosciger aterrimus) published in the journal Science Advances looks at the birds’ ability to make their own drumsticks and produce a rhythmic beat.
In contrast, chimps (that evolutionists hail as our cousins) can’t make music instruments.
Even crows beat chimps in intelligence and innovation, defying Darwinian expectations.
