Animals With High IQ
~5.8 mins read
Man has long dreamed of being able to communicate better with the Earth’s creatures, and has formed some remarkable relationships with dolphins, dogs, parrots and apes.

An animal that seems to understand us and impresses us by carrying out tasks never ceases to amaze.

Being humans, however, we always believe that we are the smartest of the lot, but are we?

Here, we present some of the cleverest creatures around, and explain why they are more deeply intellectual than many humans.


CHIMPANZEESfddfh

RECKONED to be the most-intelligent animals on the planet, chimps can manipulate the environment and their surroundings to help themselves and their community.

They can work out how to use things as tools to get things done faster, and they have outsmarted people many a time.

Cheeky little monkeys . . .

 


PIGSrgertg

IN-DEPTH research has demonstrated that a typical middle-aged pig has the intelligence of a three-year-old human.

If you’ve ever observed how frighteningly fast toddlers get to grips with complicated gadgets, phones and tablets, that is pretty impressive!

 


BOTTLENOSE DOLPHINSdfhfd

BODY mass to brain ratio is how the boffins work out an animal’s intelligence, and these loveable creatures have the largest.

Self-aware, they can recognise themselves in mirrors, can keep their appearance neat and tidy, whilst being famed for their advanced communication skills.

 


PARROTSgiphyjytk

YEAH, yeah, they just copy what we say, and that’s not clever, it’s just mimicry, right?

Actually, our colourful feathered friends have shown time and again that they can solve pretty complex problems, especially if there’s some food as a reward.

And let’s face it, there aren’t many other creatures that can repeat human phrases, either.

 


WHALESpp[

THESE big creatures can’t speak like us, but they use very complicated methods to communicate with each other.

The sounds they use are very complex, and the way they use this “language” to co-ordinate their moves as a team is extremely impressive.

And unlike some weedy humans, they probably realise that if they can’t think their way out of a situation, they can just rely on their size and bash the problem out of the way.

 


DOGS;l';

OUR best friends only come in at sixth place in the Brainy Animals rankings.

You may not be aware that the University of Glasgow and the Scottish SPCA just came up with proof that dogs have specific music tastes, another fact that makes us love them even more.

Apparently, say the researchers, canines chill out to a bit of reggae and soft rock, but find heavy metal, punk and disco very disagreeable.

 


OCTOPUSgiphy[]

SURELY with all those arms, this beast is capable of multi-tasking like no other.

Not only that, but it can rely on several highly-developed strategies to find food.

The octopus has also shown a talent for solving problems during scientific tests.

 


ELEPHANTSoj

IF you’ve ever memorised a bit of Shakespeare or mathematical equations to get a pass mark in exams, you’ll know the importance of memory.

Elephants, of course, have great memories, and they also sense if you are a nice, friendly person or someone who can be nasty.

They have large brains, and they also show a lot of empathy, unlike many creatures in the animal world that are hard-wired as predators.

 


SQUIRRELSgiphy4

FROM the massive to the tiny, these diminutive “brainies” think with their bellies.

Put some food near a squirrel and it will work out how to get it — and fast.

They also have elephant-style memories — mainly, it goes without saying, to remember the multiple places they secretly stored food for later.

 


CATSgiphy5443

UNLIKE pooches, felines just laze around, yawn, eat and go back to sleep, right?

Actually, cats have incredible sensory ability, and many of us just don’t appreciate their brain skills because they aren’t as trainable as dogs.

They are, however, very adept at learning new skills — and after all, they worked out how to have us fools running around after them while they snooze all day.

 

RATS

pizzarat

THESE rodents have great long-term memories and are capable of adapting to new surroundings.

Not everyone’s favourite furry animal, granted, but they are pretty smart.

Chapter 30

Gritting her teeth in anger Marsha tried so hard not to let the tears drop....how can Blake do this to her!?..

They both stopped what they're doing but his arm we're still encircled round her waist....a wide grin kept playing endlessly on Jocelyn's face seeing Marsha

"What the hell are you doing here?" Blake asked with a scornful look on his face

Huh??

"Blake what gotten into you!?!?..why are you fûcking kiss that whôre!?!" she cried feeling her heart shattering bits by bits

"Hey ,you better mind the way you speak to my sweetheart "he stated

"W...what!?"

"You heard him right Marsha dear....once you give birth am kicking you out of that manison and I'll become Jocelyn Carol ." Jocelyn said rashly blinking her eyes like a doll

"Blake ....."Marsha called shakily but he fixed his gaze at Jocelyn

"C'mon babe... let's go somewhere we can't hear her nagging voice ". With Marsha staring at him with teary eyes, Blake got hold of Jocelyn's arm and they both walked out of the restaurant

"The hell .. what's fûcking happening to Blake??" Marsha found a booth and cried her health out

She kept whimpering feeling immense pain thinking of Blake kissing that bîtch

The images of them smooching rushed back in her head making her scream

"Screw you Jocelyn!" she yelled with tears rolling freely down her cheeks

Earlier.......

Blake climbed down from his car and marched to Wayne's manison

He found him outside seated in the patio

"Bla_"

"Son of a bîtch!" he yelled punching him hard on the face. Wayne fell roughly on the floor and Blake not giving him a chance to regain his balance charged towards him punching him repeatedly on the face

He felt like ending his damn life right now....Marsha just ran out of him cos of this bloody bàstard!!

What's his deal anyways!?!

The securities rushed in trying to separating them but it's fruitless

With much efforts from about 5 men they managed to get a hold on Blake

"Are you happy now Wayne!....tell me are you!?.... bloody bàstard what's your fûcking problem!?!... you we're my best friend,my shield and my brother . I thought you'll be there for me instead you went behind my back and tried snatching Marsha from me. Sicken bàstard!" he rasped breathing heavily

The maids attended to Wayne as he stood up shakily...his left eye was already swollen and his lips damaged badly

Blood dripped down from Blake's knuckles as he felt like beating the shit out of Wayne

"Ion it's your first time falling in love Wayne... but for fûck sake ,do you have to act like a pûssy !"he yelled trying to break free from the men grip

"Why the hell are you even here Blake?...."he managed to ask admist his hurting lips

"To give you a stern warning.... I'll give you a free ticket to hell if I ever see you near Marsha Wayne.....I swear not even Lucifer will save you....stay away from Marsha!!" he yelled yanking his arm away

"Bàstard" he spat and walked away

***************
"Why on earth did you call me Blake?...I've got shît to do" Nadia banged the door shut walking in the spacious living room 

"Blake !..."she called alarmed seeing her brother seating frustratedly on the couch

He's eyes were shut tightly together and a bottle of brandy in his right hand

"Blake what's the matter with you?"she asked alarmed going over to seat besides him

"Blake!"

"Nadia I want Marsha.... please tell Marsha to come back...just fuvking tell her to come back...to pick my calls and talk to me..."he muttered running his fingers through his hair

"Just tell her to come back...to forget what I said and let's continue like we used to" he mumbled with tears willingly flowing down his cheeks

Sighing softly Nadia laid his head on her thighs....she knew it'll come to this....it was evident that Blake had feeling for Marsha

Was only a matter of time before he confessed to her....maybe Marsha didn't take it lightly with me?.... maybe they had an argument??

"What happened between you two ?"she asked gently

"After we came back from the hospital...we met that bloody son of a bîtch Wayne.... he came to vomit rubbish like the piece of trash he is... after he left Marsha begged me to reconcile with that bàstard but i dunno what came over me Nadia
I told her I loved her and even kissed her...she ran away and since then I've tried calling her but she's not picking my call...I dunno what to do Nadia...I just want her back...I miss her" he explained sadly sniffing a bit

"It's okay dîckhead...I can tell you love her...have not seen you act like this for a long time...."she said stroking his hair

"I have a plan that'll make Marsha yours...she's my bestie maybe she feeling guilty for what's happening between you and Wayne....maybe that's what is covering her love for you"

"She loves me?"he asked standing up in shock...his eyes beamed with surprise and a ray of hope struck his face

"Duh.... she's crazliy in love with you....am an expert at stuffs like this"Nadia replied feeling proud

"So what am I gonna do?"

"Don't worry....I have a plan...now listen up"

Presently....

"Don't you think that was too much?" Jocelyn said glancing at Blake. 

Nadia approached telling her they needed her help... naturally she wouldn't do something like this but...
She's in desperate need of money...her mum has a brain tumor and needs money for the operation...seeing this as an opportunity she gladly accepted

"I don't wanna even talk about it..I think I should end this right now....she was crying"

Jocelyn said nothing but looked outside the car

"How's your mum's health?" he asked

"She's fine...the money really helped... thanks a bunch ...I just pray Marsha realizes how much you really love her....i mean carrying out this plan cos of her..."

"Yeah..guess you're dropping here..."

"Yep... thanks for the ride "Jocelyn flashed him a smile before highlighting from the car...he inhaled loudly as the chauffeur started the drive back to the mansion

***

Nadia opened the door of the spacious living room and found no one 

"Huh?"

"Where's Blake?... Blake!"

"Yeah what is it?"he answered climbing down the stairs with a toothbrush in his mouth

"How did it go?" she sat down on the couch cross legged

"Went as planned just that
Marsha_"
"Was crying?"She asked and he nodded

" Yeah...she cried ...don't worry about it... she won't be able to hide her feelings for long." He sighed tiredly

"I just want to get this over with.... can't believe I kissed another girl...gosh!!" he climbed back the stairs

"Lover boy "she laughed heartily before leaving

Night Time.....

"Nadia!" Marsha cried rushing to hug her...her eyes were all puffy and her face extremely red cos of crying

She hasn't eaten anything since afternoon and can barely walk

"Marsha" she embraced her tightly not wanting to let go

"What's the matter??..why are you crying??" she asked in pretence

"It's Blake...I....I...saw him kissing...j... Jocelyn" she cried the more feeling a sting in her heart recalling them smooching

"That's why you're crying!?...I thought you don't love Blake ?"she scoffed standing up

"N...n... Nadia" she called shakily

"What!?... you don't love him...allow him love someone else..."she rolled her eyes about to leave

"Nadia.."

"Stop calling my name already...let Blake love someone else...at least when you guys separate he can be with the one he loves...am going to the kitchen "she opened the door

"Fuvk.... "Marsha curled herself in a ball and continued crying profusely.

Indian Billionaire Ratan Tata Names Dog As Beneficiary Of 91 Million Estate
~1.1 mins read
Indian billionaire Ratan Tata, who passed away on October 9, 2024, at age 86, reportedly named his dog, Tito, as a beneficiary of his £91 million estate.
Tata, known for transforming the Tata Group into a global powerhouse, included provisions for “unlimited care” for his German shepherd, highlighting his deep affection for his pet.
Tata left a Rs 10,000 crore will, which includes provisions for family, loyal staff, charities, and even his beloved pet dog Tito.
The Ratan Tata Endowment Foundation (RTEF) is set to be the main recipient of Tata’s estate. The bulk of Tata’s Rs 10,000 crore fortune, including his stakes in Tata Sons and other Tata Group companies, will be transferred to RTEF, reported The Times of India.
Ratan Tata’s will also includes allocations for his close family members. His brother, Jimmy Tata, and his half-sisters, Shireen and Deanna Jejeebhoy, are among the beneficiaries. Tata’s trusted household staff, such as his cook, Rajan Shaw, and his butler, Subbiah, who have served him for many years, are also included in the will.
Shantanu Naidu, who was Tata’s executive assistant and close confidante, will also receive a share of the inheritance.
Also, Ratan Tata made special provisions for his German shepherd, Tito. The dog, adopted 5–6 years ago, is set to receive “unlimited” care. Rajan Shaw, who already looked after Tito, will continue to do so, with resources ensured by Tata’s will for Tito’s lifelong wellbeing.

Why FG Shut Down All Refeneries :NNPC
~0.6 mins read
The Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, Mele Kyari, says the four oil refineries in the country have been shut down in Port Harcourt, Warri and Kaduna.
Kyari said this on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Wednesday.
He explained that all four refineries were functioning below capacity and it had thus become necessary to stop them from operating all together.
Responding to a question, the NNPC boss said, “First, all the four refineries in three locations are shut down and it was a deliberate decision for two reasons. One is that delivery of crude oil to these refineries is completely challenged because the pipeline network has been completely compromised by vandals and all kinds of people that will not allow us to operate these pipelines.
