There are many forms of cognition. Bats can recognize approaching objects through sonar, crows can dazzle us with their tool use strategies, and human infants can see more colors than human adults do. To help us understand cognition at large, the Atlas of Comparative Cognition seeks to catalogue and visualize empirical findings across developmental groups, cultures, and species. You can learn more in our position statement here.
