Hi! I've been wondering for a while and decided to ask you guys
What is an axolotl mentally capable of? By this I mean do they remember what time they get food and where they have to go to find food? Is this different between wild axolotls and those who live in captivity? Do they recognize food only by smell and movement or do they also pay attention to for example texture? Would they be able to learn simple things like going through hoops for food? Do they play when their young (like for example cats) to train their hunting skills?
I know these are a lot of questions and I don't really axect an answer for all of them , but nonetheless. Also, if someone knows some good books or articles about axolotl behavior or biology I'd really like to know (prefeably somthing that can be found online, because I don't really have acces to a lot of the reccomended books :'))
Thanks in advance!
