"There will never be a horse like Mr. Ed, the talking equine TV star. But
scientists have discovered that the animals can learn to use another human tool
for communicating: pointing to symbols. They join a short list of other
species, including some primates, dolphins, and pigeons, with this talent."

Add another animal to the list.  Via Muse.

Share and enjoy,
