Differential learning and use of geometric angles by pigeons and humans

The use of environmental geometry as a spatial cue is well established for a range of species. Previous research has focused largely on the use of global geometry (e.g., the shape of a room). Thus, comparatively less is known about how local geometry (e.g., corner angles within a room) is encoded. T...
