Cephalopod tool use

Does this article need a section on cephalopod tool use? There are several research articles documenting octopi tool use, such as opening jars and using shells to construct barriers. Komodo (talk) 16:09, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Then please, feel free to add one! When creating this article, I just used what was in Category:Tool using species. Dendodge|Talk^Contribs 15:53, 1 September

Consider the jellyfish, it has no brain and very basic sense abilitys. Howerver, working like a Human Heart, it uses jet propulsion to move it's self around. Cephalopods and Archer Fish have been observed using jet propelled water as a tool, so could jellyfish be tool users even though there doing it unconciosly. Woodnot (talk) 18:33 7 september 2008

Leopold?

Under "Tool Use By Specific Groups of Animals" on the "Primate" section several sentences state this: In an experiment a group of chimpanzees were presented with a model Leopold with a moving head. There was soon commotion as Leopold are one of the chimpanzees predators. So what is a Leopold? I assume the author meant Leopard, but not being the author and considering the author typed "Leopold" several times, I will leave it up to someone else to research and figure out exactly what it is. 168.103.81.73 (talk) 23:49, 18 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
