Naturalistic Intelligence

Naturalistic Intelligence refers to nature, nurturing, and classification.

This is a recently proposed for of intelligence and is not yet widely accepted as other forms.

Those with naturalistic intelligence are said to have greater sensitivity to nature and their place within it, the ability to nurture and grow things, and greater ease in caring for, taming, and interacting with animals. They are also good at recognizing and classifying different species.

The theory behind this intelligence is often criticized, much like the spiritual or existential intelligence, as it is seen by many is not indicative of an intelligence but rather an interest.

Careers which suit those with this intelligence include scientists, naturalists, conservationists, gardeners, and farmers.
