Scientific Interest:A team of US researchers has demonstrated in a statistical study published in May 2013 that the song of canaries was structured by nature syllables and phrases. The purpose of their visit was not only to determine the extent to singing canaries delivered a message, but also to study these birds as a learning model of acoustic communication on the neural level. Starting neural circuits canaries, which remain relatively complex, it would be possible to put into perspective some human complex behaviors
