Top 10 most intelligent animals on Earth: some of Top 10 most intelligent animals on Earth: some of the rankings will genuinely surprise you. Scientists have spent decades studying animal intelligence, but brain size alone doesn’t determine how smart an animal is. Some species with enormous brains rank below animals with brains hundreds, even more than 1,000 times, smaller. Some even have bird brains. I reveal the top five first. Can you identify the other five before the reveal? Which animal in the top 10 surprised you the most? #Intelligence #Neuroscience #medical #animal #brain

Now he has to choose between open-heart surgery to remove it, with major risks… or leaving the cement where it is. What would you do? #medical #surgery #medicaleducation #Cardiology #patients
