Detailed explanation-1: -Several species of animals have been observed using insight learning. Insight learning is the use of past experiences and reasoning to solve problems. Unlike operant conditioning, insight learning does not involve trial and error. Instead, an animal thinks through a solution to a problem based on previous experience.

Detailed explanation-2: -Along with mammal research on species such as chimpanzees, elephants, dogs and rats, researchers have also found insightful behaviour in various bird species including parrots, corvids (crows and ravens), and even songbirds. One popular problem-solving task involves string-pulling.

Detailed explanation-3: -imitation, in psychology, the reproduction or performance of an act that is stimulated by the perception of a similar act by another animal or person. Essentially, it involves a model to which the attention and response of the imitator are directed. As a descriptive term, imitation covers a wide range of behaviour.
