Less mainstream factsTayras (Eira barbara) have been observed to accurately harvest and store unripe green plantains (which are inedible), then return a few days later to consume the fruit once ripe. This suggests they may be capable of prospective thinking; which was previously believed to only be a trait in primates and birds.
