Detailed explanation-1: -Tinbergen concluded that the wasp did use landmarks to find her nests, and that she could learn new ones. Tinbergen used simple materials in his experiment-pine cones and stones-and a simple procedure. The results led him to conclude that digger wasps use a pattern of landmarks to find their nests.
Detailed explanation-2: -Examples of insight learning in apes in the wild include chimpanzees “fishing” for termites. The animals place a “tool” such as a twig in a hole of termite mound, and the termites crawl onto the twig. Then the chimpanzee withdraws the twig from the hole and eats the termites.
