Animals That Recognize Their Reflections
Page 4 of 11
Dolphin
Dolphins are extremely intelligent. So it’s not surprising that they can recognize their reflections. In a test, researchers put black dots on the dolphins and let them look in a mirror under water. They swam straight to the mirror and spent a lot of time looking into it. They weren’t even distracted by other dolphins. Without the black dots, the mirror wasn’t that interesting.
