SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
In 2009, there was a paper session at the annual meeting of the Southeastern Psychological Association entitled "Animal Minds: Sea Lions and Voles and Bears (and Dolphins and Monkeys), Oh My!" The goal of this session was to present a broad perspective on current research in animal cognition, and in particular to present to the SEPA audience some of the variety of species and tasks that are being used in comparative cognition research today. Beyond accomplishing this goal, however, the session revealed something else that provided the basis for the current special issue. //
