Summary
We all know humans are the most dominant species on the planet ... but why? We're not the strongest, fastest or largest. We don't have the best sight, smell or hearing. So how come we're the ones in charge? It's because of our brains. No other species can produce literature, solve complex math or science problems, or build machines like cars, computers and space stations. So how do our brains stack up against the brains of other species? We'll try to find out in this episode that pits animals against humans in a series of unique competitions. And you'll see some amazing ways your brain can actually learn a few tricks from the animal kingdom.
