sources - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 In 1997, at Sweden’s Furuvik Zoo, a male chimpanzee named Santino began calmly collecting stones from his enclosure’s moat, forming caches of 3 to 8 stones each before visitors arrived. Over the next decade, zoo staff observed this over 50 times. When agitated by crowds, he’d hurl the stones at them in dominance displays. A 2009 study in Current Biology hailed this as the first clear evidence of a non-human animal planning actions in a calm state for a future agitated one, showing advanced foresight. Santino even crafted concrete discs as extra projectiles, underscoring deliberate preparation.

Sickan the horse, 1895, Sweden.

“Powerful runes secretly i  hid  here, powerful runes. Anyone who violates this memorial is constantly plagued by arghet ("angryness”, social agitation / rejection). Treacherous death will befall him. I trace destruction.“ So reads the inscription on the more than four feet high stone at Björketorp. With its two flanking attendants  Björketorp Stone is one of the country's most powerful rune stone monuments. The inscription is from the late600's AD. There is also a burial ground with two types of stone circles (domarringar and stensättningar) and standing stones.
