Cockatoos learn to lift trash lids for food, study finds

Meanwhile in Australia, cockatoos are biting tails of kangaroos and stealing their food.
WASHINGTON (AP) â A few years ago, a scientist in Sydney, Australia, noticed a sulfur-crested cockatoo opening his trash bin. Not every resident would be thrilled, but ornithologist Richard Major was impressed by the ingenuity.
It s quite a feat for a bird to grasp a bin lid with its beak, pry it open, then shuffle far enough along the bin s edge that the lid falls backward, revealing edible trash treasures inside.
Intrigued, Major teamed up with researchers in Germany to study how many cockatoos learned this trick. In early 2018, they found from a survey of residents that birds in three Sydney suburbs had mastered the novel foraging technique. By the end of 2019, birds were lifting bins in 44 suburbs. ....

Clever cockatoos learn through social interaction

Max-Planck-Gesellschaft
For the first time, a team of international scientists have proven that cockatoos, an iconic Australian bird species, learn from each other a unique skill lifting garbage bin lids to gather food. The world-first research published today in Science, confirms that cockatoos spread this novel behavior through social learning. Led by Barbara Klump and Lucy Aplin (Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior), along with John Martin (Taronga Conservation Society) and Richard Major (Australian Museum), the team have shown that this behavior by cockatoos is actually learnt, rather than a result of genetics.
Lead co-author, Barbara Klump, said social learning is the basis of different regional cultures, and some animals, such as primates and birds, appear to learn socially. “Children are masters of social learning. From an early age, they copy skills from other children and adults. However, compared to humans, there are few known examples of animals learning ....

(CNN) A few years ago, Australian scientist Richard Major took a video of a cockatoo in Sydney opening a closed trash bin lid with its beak and foot to access the gold mine of leftover food inside.
He shared it with Barbara Klump and Lucy Aplin, both researchers at the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior in Germany and they were immediately fascinated.
It was so exciting to observe such an ingenious and innovative way to access a food resource, we knew immediately that we had to systematically study this unique foraging behavior, said Klump, a postdoctoral research fellow at the institute in a news release. ....
