Scientists conducted a study to determine which animal is the smartest on Earth after humans. This is reported on the T4 website.

Chimpanzees, our closest relatives in the animal kingdom, are amazing in their intelligence. They are able to use tools, solve complex problems, have a developed social structure, and are even capable of certain forms of language. Studies have shown that chimpanzees can memorize large amounts of information, plan their actions, and cooperate with other group members to achieve a common goal.

Dolphins are famous for their high level of intelligence and complex social interactions. They have a developed language and are capable of self-awareness and empathy. Dolphins also demonstrate impressive learning and problem-solving abilities.

Elephants are the largest land mammals that also have large brains and high intelligence. They have a complex social structure, show empathy and compassion for other herd members, and are capable of long-term memory. Elephants also use tools and demonstrate problem-solving abilities.

Crows are one of the smartest birds on the planet. They are able to use tools, solve complex problems, and even plan their actions for the future. Crows also have excellent memory and face recognition abilities.

Octopuses are invertebrates with incredibly developed brains and intelligence. They are capable of complex learning, problem solving, and tool use. Octopuses also have an amazing ability to camouflage and mimic.

Determining the smartest creature after humans is a difficult task because different species of animals have different types of intelligence and abilities. However, chimpanzees, dolphins, elephants, crows, and octopuses are the undisputed leaders in the world of animal intelligence, demonstrating impressive abilities to think, learn, and adapt to their environment.
