Borrego and her team presented the rope challenge to 12 captive lions at Florida's Lion Country Safari. Eleven of them successfully solved it: seven on their own and four after watching another lion do it. Ten of the 11 recalled the solution five to seven months later. 

Nice story though, I'm not denying that tigers are highly intelligent, I'm merely stating that I believe lions tend to be more intelligent, not by much. Brain size is not a proven factor of intelligence, if it was then other experiments proven that it isn't wouldn't exist.

The 12 lions were a complete different and seperate study, lol.
It even said in your article "In a follow-up experiment using a similar conceptual puzzle,"
I think more research has to be done on this.. and hopefully both the same amount of specimens, lol.  Reply
