From Grok:

Who was Koko the gorilla?

Koko wwas a western lowland gorilla born July 4, 1971, at the San Francisco Zoo. Researcher Francine “Penny” Patterson began teaching her a modified form of American Sign Language in 1972. Over decades Koko was reported to use more than 1,000 signs and to understand about 2,000 spoken English words. She appeared on the cover of National Geographic twice—once taking her own photo in a mirror

What was kokos iq

Koko was given several standard human infant and preschool IQ tests in the mid-1970s by Francine Patterson. Reported scores typically fell in the 70–95 range, with an average around 80.


quote:


What is the average IQ of a Somali person?

The most-cited measured figure is about 68.
A 2017 study tested 2,440 Somali schoolchildren (ages 8–18) living in the Dadaab refugee camps in Kenya on Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices Plus. Converted to British norms, the sample averaged roughly 68 (males ~68, females ~66). This is the main direct test data used in later national-IQ compilations (Lynn/Becker and updates), which list Somalia around 67–72.

So Koko was abt as smart as an average human infant when taking into account it's test scores from an IQ test designed for human infants.

Always amazed at the reading comprehension on TD.

You don't have to outsmart people who want to help you.

Somalis are the backbone of Minnesota. Who would drive for Uber Eats and collect welfare if not for them?

Animals that look basically the same are different species because they’re two islands apart. But supposedly we’re all the same species.

Yeah right

We have people catching rockets and other people that can’t read and shite in holes.

Every modern/developed country in the world should let these WV people in freely, right?


No vetting, no need to show that you can support yourself financially, no requirement to prove how you’d benefit the country allowing you in, no requirement to show any type of identification to prove who you are. No reason for any of that nonsense, right?

For shits and giggles, let us know a single country other than the US allowing what I’ve described above.

You won’t, because you can’t. They don’t exist.

Right?? They classify new species of fish due to bumps on their tongue or how far there gills are from the pectoral fins. They can tell what race a skeleton belonged to by different bone structures but hey, not a different species.

Probably get banned for this but it is true.

I’m not saying Somalia is churning out MENSA candidates but Koko didn’t have an 85 IQ

You share about 99.99% of the same DNA as the most retarded person in Somalia.

It’s not even close really. You are orders of magnitudes closer to a human from Africa than you are to a chimp.
