Ants’ language and intelligence | Zhanna Reznikova | TEDxNovosibirsk

The success of scientists in deciphering the signals of animals is modest: they are able to understand the language of dancing bees and monkeys’ cries of alarm. Artificial languages mediators allowed us to engage in dialogue with the apes and find out that they can make jokes, cheat and swear. That means, in the natural communication of certain animals is hidden potential unknown until now.
