Скачать или смотреть Is Bunny the “talking" dog legit? Here’s what science says

Want to know whether “talking” dogs like Bunny are for real?

When UC San Diego Professor Federico Rossano first saw Bunny’s videos, he was a skeptic. After all, he knows all about the complicated and messy history of animal communication studies – like the woman who tried to teach a dolphin to speak.

But after studying these button-pushing pups for years, his team has published some research that will make you rethink just how much dogs are capable of telling us.

Federico’s study is still looking for participants! Sign up here: https://cclab.ucsd.edu/pet-cognition-...
