Watch: Veronika the cow shows off her unique skills<\/figcaption><\/p>\n
\n

Scientists are rethinking what cattle are capable of after an Austrian cow named Veronika was found to use tools with impressive skill. <\/p>\n

The discovery, reported by researchers in Vienna, suggests cows may have far greater cognitive abilities than previously assumed.<\/p>\n

Veronika, a cow living in a mountain village in the Austrian countryside, has spent years perfecting the art of scratching herself using sticks, rakes, and brooms. <\/p>\n

Word of her behaviour eventually reached animal intelligence specialists in Vienna, who found Veronika used both ends of the same object for different tasks. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

If it were her back or another tough area that warranted a good scratch, she would use the bristle end of a broom. <\/p>\n

When a softer touch was needed, such as on her sensitive underbelly, she would use the smooth handle end.<\/p>\n

This kind of tool use is rarely seen in the animal kingdom and has never been documented in cattle before.<\/p>\n

Dr Antonio Osuna-Mascaro of the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna said: “We were not expecting cows to be able to use tools, and we were not expecting a cow to use a tool as a multipurpose tool. Until now this has only been consistently reported in chimpanzees.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Chimpanzees show the most varied range of tool use outside of humans. They use sticks to gather ants and termites, and stones to crack nuts.<\/p>\n

However, despite about 10,000 years of humans living alongside cattle, this is the first time scientists have documented a cow using a tool.<\/p>\n

The researchers say their discovery shows that cows are smarter than we think and that other cows could develop similar skills, given the chance.<\/p>\n

As for Veronika’s owner, organic farmer Witgar Wiegele, he hopes her unexpected talents will inspire people to value the natural world. <\/p>\n

As he puts it: “Save the nature, then you protect yourself. Nature diversity is the key to survive on this planet.”<\/p>\n

The study is published in the journal Current Biology<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
