Depends on what\\\'s it about. Mental abilities are just tools like everything else. For non-specific learning and creativity it \\\"really\\\" takes either a \\\'\\\'flexible\\\'\\\' opportunist predator who have to learn and invent tactics as opposed to a specialist; or social one who have to use coordinated tactics more complex than \\\"and now we all jump at it\\\".

Though sometimes even birds considered \\\"heatseekers with feathers\\\" are more foresighted than their owner expect. Humans notice almost exclusively social ones (like canines or Harris hawk) acting \\\"smart\\\" because their behaviour is easier to observe, especially when they aren\\\'t picky and include you in a group. =)
