BBC - Chris Packham's Animal Einsteins (2021) art 2 Communicators

Animals have to be smart to survive. Chris Packham reveals the natural world's surprising brainboxes and uncovers the clever strategies that give certain species the upper hand.

Part 2 Communicators

Chris reveals some of the cleverest animal communicators on the planet. For decades, people have longed to emulate Dr Doolittle and be able to understand what animals are communicating to one another. But their methods often go far beyond the capabilities of our human senses. Now, thanks to dedicated researchers, new science and cutting-edge technology, we're being given a glimpse into the ingenious ways that animals get their message across - that dolphins have individual names for each other, that cuttlefish use covert signals, and that humans can understand apes without even realising it.
