SEA LION GETS INTO THE GROOVE

A sea lion in the US with a talent for nodding her head in time to music is better at identifying the rhythm of a song than humans, a new study shows.

Ronan, a 15-year-old California sea lion, has been studied by Peter Cook of the New College of Florida for 10 years. She is one of very few animals known to be able to groove in time to a song. Before Ronan, scientists didn't think that animals who didn't sing would be able to recognise music.
