animal behaviorists have found strong evidence of teaching in four species (other than humans): meerkats (Suricata suricatta), southern pied-babblers (Turdoides bicolor), superb fairywrens (Malurus cyaneus) and a species of rock ant (Temnothorax albipennis). Researchers suspect that many more species—from orcas and elephants to chickens and bees—will also be recognized as teachers. “It’s a young field, so teaching ought to be studied rigorously, says Alex Thornton, a behavioral ecologist at the University of Exeter in the United Kingdom. It’s almost surely more widespread than what we know. But we also need the evidence.
