Ronan , the only non-human mammal to demonstrate highly precise beat keeping, continues to challenge our understanding of biomusicality.
The California sea lion achieved global fame for her ability to bob her head to a beat.
At 120 bpm, Ronan 's most practiced tempo, she on average hits within 15 milliseconds of the beat.
Ronan 's 2013 study made a huge splash because it challenged the vocal-learning theory of rhythm.
But in the study's wake, some prominent theorists in biomusicality claimed that her performance was not as precise and reliable as human performance.
Now, at 170 pounds and age 16 , the team says Ronan is "grown up and in her prime".
