Ex-racehorse Lukas rated as World's smartest horse.
"Lukas' repertoire now includes nodding "yes" and shaking his head "no," kissing, catching and fetching, giving curtsies, waving, performing a Spanish walk, bowing, playing hide-and-seek, staying and coming, rearing, pushing a barrel, spelling (five-letter words), counting (up to five), identifying shapes, distinguishing among three colors, and putting a hoop on a cone."
