Extraordinary Animals
Psychic dogs, arty elephants, genius chimps and talkative dolphins steal the spotlight in Extraordinary Animals. This jaw-dropping series investigates animals with remarkable and unique abilities. From Hong, a female elephant in Northern Thailand with a special talent for painting; to Scamp, a dog with the uncanny ability to know when a patient is going to die, this fascinating program showcases animal talents that are out of this world! (Excerpt from animalplanet.ca)
In fact there are 14 episodes of this remarkable animal series, but I think only these three are available.
The Grim Reaper Dog
The Smartest Sea Lion
The Genius Parrot

Lol, erm bit of a silly comment , Human are animals
Wonderful films! The Grim Reaper Dog needs a bit if editing, though. It repeats the intro too many times, which makes it seem odd 7 not thought out. But it was terrific to see, anyway! :)
Ravens, are in my opinion, the smartest of all birds. Absolutely loved those videos. The logic of the seal just blew my mind.
All three animals were incredibly impressive! I felt the sea lion trainers did a better job testing the intelligence of the sea lion vs humans then the parrot trainer did with her parrot vs the 3 and 4 year old children. I got the impression that the parrot had been asked those exact questions many many many times before, whereas those children obviously had not. In the case of the sea lions, the tests were purely logical, you looked for the pattern, no previous knowledge is required, just thinking skills. The sea lion proved that it was in fact thinking, grouping, and solving problems much like humans do, AMAZING! The Grim Reaper dog was awesome, the fact that dogs can smell things like the chemical processes going on in our bodies, things we still can’t detect with the fanciest machines is just insane! Definitely worth watching all three!!!
My Saint Bernhard “learned” how to detect when i was going to have an attack of asthma. He alerted me by pushing me towards my handbag (where i keep my inhaler) while whimping and running back and forth between me and my handbag. At first i didn’t realize what he was doing, but when i got an attack of asthma 5-10 mins after every time he behaved like this, i put two and two together!
He even alerted my boyfriend a couple of times to go and get the inhaler and bring it to me when i was outside in the garden.
Animals are remarkable creatures and God knows what they are capable of!
Alyz, sounds interesting.
I loved the dog and the sea lion, and i agree with Coyote03 about the parrot, my thoughts exactly.
