Biota captive bred Blue Streak Cleaner Wrasse available now
Reposted from Seriously, I am so amused to know that there are fish who passed the mirror test!! 😮That is a "self-awareness" experiment that only a few animals like chimpanzees and dolphins have ever passed.
I thought I knew that fish are intelligent, but I still underestimated them. I didn't expect such a tiny cleaner wrasse (only 10 cm long) proving themselves to have self-cognizance to use the mirror.
They help their clients (bigger fish) to clean off parasites. They have excellent observation skills and are highly social. (They need to serve different clients, have a complicated life...that is another story)
The study was published two years ago. The fish shows aggressiveness the first time seeing the mirror. After they got used to it, the researchers placed a colored mark on their body. Then they just scape it off and check their reflection in the mirror again.
The study's senior author, Australian scientist Alex Jordan said: "For a long time this test was a sort of gatekeeper to a special club of 'smart animals'. This is silly, as not all animals will respond to the test in a way we can interpret. To then suggest these animals are stupid is misleading."
The study:
M. Kohda et al. “If a Fish Can Pass the Mark Test, What Are the Implications for Consciousness and Self-Awareness Testing in Animals?” PLOS Biology 17, no. 2 (February 7, 2019): e3000021. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pbio.3000021.
