Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Clever Hans was a horse who could do math problems, tell time, read, spell, and more...or could he?

Even after seeing Hans answer questions correctly, some people thought it must be a hoax. Scientists began to investigate. Eventually, one scientist had a groundbreaking "aha!" moment and realized Hans was clever in a way no one had even imagined.

Turns out Hans was so smart, he changed science!
