Just thinking about how I’ve read that humans are the only animals on the planet that can throw objects with a degree of accuracy. But could a dog or other animal be taught, and trained to throw things to hit a target? I mean, it’s not like a human can throw well without guidance and practice, either.

    Ever see a toucan in person? I had an employee with a toucan he would sometimes bring into work. It could throw things, especially round fruit, with uncanny accuracy. Like it could easily play catch from at least 2m away.

    Glaucous-winged gulls also seem to have uncanny accuracy with defecation, but that’s not quite throwing.
