Human episodic memory involves remembering specific events and experiences that are contextualized in time and space. Similarly, scrub jays are able to remember where and when they have hidden food items, which is a type of episodic-like memory. Value transfer in pigeons, paired associate learning in chimpanzees, and the internal clock in pigeons do not involve this same type of contextualized remembering of specific events in time and space.
