Gorillas may have greater self-awareness than scientists previously thought. A new study finds that gorillas perform just as well as chimpanzees in tests that require awareness of their own bodies. A research team, led by Utrecht University biologist Jorg Massen, performed the study. The researchers now encourage their peers to use different types of tests to better understand self-awareness in animals. Gorillas may have greater self-awareness than scientists previously thought.
