Do you think of different groups of people across the world with various traditions and clothing? What about animals? Sam Wiliams, executive director of the Macaw(金刚鹦鹉) Recovery Network in Costa Rica, helps to improve macaw populations by taking birds that were born in captivity and made them go back into the wild. But this process is very slow. “In a cage, you can􀆳t train them to know where, when and how to find that food, or about trees with good nest sites,” Wiliams told ecologist(生态学者) and writer Carl Safina for the Guardian. In the wild, the parents would be the ones to teach them this important information. This type of knowledge is known as cultural knowledge. Cultural knowledge can be passed down from the older generation to the newer one. For many species, cultural knowledge is necessary for survival. Culture helps animals to adapt to different habitats. For example, some crows (乌鸦) have learned to put nuts in the middle of the road for cars to drive over. And in other areas, they have learned to do this at intersections(十字路口) so they can safely get the food when the cars stop at red lights. Other important parts of cultural knowledge include things like group identity, using different tools, taking different migration(迁徙) routes and using different socializing methods.
