least with any primates we have seen. 43
Betty is just one of many birds exhibiting “intelligent” behav-
ior. Many other scientific investigations are being conducted on this

subject, making it ever more evident that all interpretations of the
intelligence of chimpanzees, and consequent claims of the relation-
ship between man and chimpanzee, are wrong.
Whatever the source of animal behavior, evolutionary claims
do not support these characteristics. Many birds’ behavioral pat-
terns are determined from birth by their genetic structures. But if so,
we should question who coded such behavioral patterns into the
genes of birds? The evolutionists’ response—that behavior is caused
by instinct—leaves this question still unanswered, because birds’ be-
havioral patterns are the inspiration of God and cannot be explained

by such vague concepts as “instinct.” The learned behavior seen in
a few species of bird creates yet another dilemma for evolutionists,
since they cannot say it is due to instinct. The surprising degree of
consciousness observed in birds that have vocal
learning such as parrots is a manifestation of the in-
spiration of God.
