It’s not just brain size that matters. It’s how big the brain is relative to the size of the body. In that regard I think I’m right in saying that humans have the largest brain for their body size. Yes a whales brain is bigger than ours, but their bodies are even bigger. Some birds are highly intelligent despite having small brains because they’re just so stinking small.
