Chimpanzees don’t have an IQ score like humans do because IQ tests are designed specifically for human cognitive abilities. However, scientists study their intelligence through problem-solving tasks, memory tests, and communication experiments.
Generally, chimps are considered highly intelligent among animals, showing skills like:
Using tools
Understanding simple language cues
Solving puzzles
Remembering complex patterns
If you want a rough comparison, some researchers say chimps have cognitive abilities roughly equivalent to a human toddler aged 3 to 5 years, but this varies depending on the task.
