Crows “count” the number of self-generated vocalizations: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126
Is mathematical thinking widespread in the animal kingdom? What if even simple organisms are able to do some sort of math?

well we learned how to count somehow. Do you think it just magically happened as we became human beings, that there is some magic spot in our brains that let us count versus animals?
Our brains are more advanced outcroppings of the brains that other animals had before us. Our PFCs got filled out a little more, that's it. Our PFCs just scrape everything else together. So we got BETTER at counting, and the various cognitive processes that constitute counting got more intertwined.

Does this mean mathematicians can be replaced with bees and birds?

Monkeys count faster than any human mathmagician could ever imagine.

Every living organism has some kind of ability to count. Even single-cell organisms.
Mathematics is part of consciousness
