Actually I think reptiles are more intelligent than people give them credit for. I mean they did branch off of birds and we know birds are kind of intelligent. There was a study done where bearded dragons actually learned from other bearded dragons how to open a door to get to the other side for an insect. One was taught how to do it and then when put in a cage with a bunch who didn't know, they watched the one who did and they learned how to do it. That's just the basic overview of the experiment. There is more detail but I cant remember the siteBottom line is I think they can learn which is a form of intelligence. They just don't have emotions like how we classify them like love, hate, revenge etc. They are more instinctual emotions like fear.
