You probably forget your wallet or keys on a regular basis, don't you?
Chimpanzees have been shown to forget an experience within 20 seconds, according to National Geographic
In studies bees have been seen to have a recall duration of just 2.5 seconds.
Baboons are highly intelligent primates who cherish their relationships with their families but have a really poor memory.
The hamster’s short-term memory is thought to be no more than three seconds.
Although little research has been made on hamsters, many rodents are capable of learning and responding to their name.
Seals are definitely intelligent and can understand words and commands, as well as signs and human laughter,
But they have a awful memory.
A giraffe’s short-term memory isn’t even enough to remember that they have done something.
It’s not uncommon for them to have such poor visual recall that they mistake their arms for tree branches.
This causes them to often tragically fall to their death.
Turkeys are extremely unintelligent birds, which is reflected in their terrible memory.
Their short-term memory lasts a mere 10 seconds,
meaning they can be chasing something and suddenly forget why.
Most snakes have very poor or no memories at all.
They have no concept of being pets and may not even recognise their owners.
