Now I know you're going to say that this proves your point that they use a preprogrammed strategy, but it does not- read the end paragraph- it shows how another group of wolves invented a separate strategy after observing the tendencies of deer.
Example
Certain prides of Lions have developed strategies to hunt elephants.
There's an overwhelming tide of evidence washing away at the beach of human superiority.
Well, in a definition, humans are robots too, just insanely complex. Every animal on Earth can be created as a robot, not by current technology, but it can.
I know many animals can improvise, but that's not strategy.
The links you used just show how variables can be changed. Or, to stop using coding terms (excuse a Lua coder), those animals remember their positions, movement, prey and other things, but the plan itself is not changing. Discuss. | |
