		Research Wild genius - domestic fool? Spatial learning abilities of wild and domestic guinea pigs Lars Lewejohann, Thorsten Pickel, Norbert Sachser, Sylvia Kaiser Frontiers in Zoology 2010, 7:9 (25 March 2010) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary Despite smaller brains, domesticated guinea pigs of both sexes consistently outperform their wild counterparts in tests of spatial learning suggesting they have evolved specific adaptations to man-made environments.
