Psychology's Daphna Buchsbaum, joins Steve Paikin on TV Ontario's The Agenda to discuss her research in animal cognition. Starting with Jane Goodall's research with chimpanzees, evidence shows us that animals are more intelligent than was believed in the past, and have complex emotional lives. But the question remains, are animals conscious. This episode of The Agenda looks at this question by examining new research, including that of Dr. Buchsbaum's, on the inner lives of animals. This fascinating program aired on March 5th. Watch it at https://www.tvo.org/video/programs/the-agenda-with-steve-paikin/what-animals-think-and-feel.
