About

Animal Cognition

Investigating the mental capacities of animals. 

Animal Cognition (.org) explores research on the mental capacities of animals: how animals think, solve problems, understand concepts, communicate, and empathize. We are an independent web publication focused on producing articles and other types of media that help the public develop a better understanding of animal minds.

This site was founded and is run by Amanda Pachniewska & Pawel Pachniewski. If you would like to get in touch, you can send an e-mail to editor[at]animalcognition.org, or use the contact form below.
