This comment has no right being this funny
@@willbowers1185 what
I do the same I’m a big guy 6’3 big build and I walk down the street and cross the street seeing a regular dude walking towards me the initial “dudes walking alone at night” only to realises so am I. Always turns into hoping I don’t scare some poor woman she doesn’t deserve that
First bear was hilarious.
Just the fact that the elephant wanted to see parts of its body it's never seen before. Shows how truly intelligent they are.
tru, thank Allah they arent any mor intelligent to make scam calls
According to the Torah of the Jews, some people became bodies and some turned into elephants. This was in the generation that wanted to build the Tower of Babel about five thousand years ago. I am an Israeli Jew but I live in Florida.🇮🇱
Yup
Great to see someone with such a positive outlook!

Come on, we all do that in the bathroom after a bath
I moved an injured magpie from the road. At first, other magpies attacked me, but they later joined us. When the bird died, I left gifts at its resting spot. Over time, I noticed other trinkets there. Watching from afar, I saw the other magpies also bringing offerings.
thats awesome man, animals are amazing
Magpies are so smart I did NOT immediately say "that's ridiculous" upon reading that. Very cool little creatures.
Must’ve been the King Magpie
I like how the bear tried to understand what was happening but then chose violence instead
Every human ever "Am i right kekek"
Violence is not the answer it's a question and the answer is yes - sun tzu art of war
😂😂😂
he was probably thinking like "WOW, OH, OHH SHIT, UH, UHMMM, VIOLENCE"
@AnNWord Cook That's not even a "terrifyingly huge bear". Imagine if that bear was a grizzly and not a black bear. That mirror would be gone immediately.
I like to imagine that the animals that attack their reflections, like the roosters, have these internal dialogues like " Oh man, this guy's good, he's matching every attack I've thrown so far, he's as good as I am."
Why no comments
I will not fall to you Kakarot!!!
Or "ugly as i am"
I thought it was just me
And on top of that, it’s like I’m running into a wall every time I hit them…
*The cat touching her own ears after spotting them in the mirror was absolutely adorable, one of the cutest moments ever. 😻🐾*

Your profile picture reminds me of the style of the New York Yankees baseball team logo.
Turn to Christ, time is running out in these last days, repent and turn from all sin and unprofitable things, so you can be forgiven and seen righteous in his eyes, to the only one that matters. Everything on this earth will be destroyed, lost, rot and rust but with him you will be renewed, where death has no sting, fear is beaten, peace that surpasses all understanding, He gave his life for us, let us give ours in return, and live righteously for Christ, love others as ourselves, and believe he is the one true God, so we can be after his own heart, to be granted salvation, accepted by the King the greatest honor.
@@ChristAlwaysnot sure what how that's related we all watching animals looking at mirrors and your here talking about your imaginary friend and the cult made for it. Sadly we don't care I do not wish to take part in a cult that commits child sacrifices like in Egypt asking for the first born son of all as a sacrifice is mass child sacrifice and you are trying to get ppl to worship this evil monster who is in support of mass child sacrifice and a being who demands blood and living sacrifices is evil that is the Christian god you worship a made up being who in the book made to make it sound the best and gwt followers is about a evil God who commits mass genocide mass child sacrifice sends angels of death to torment humans and makes a special place it gets to punch you if you don't do everyrhing perfect you even have to and can't do certain things gs and have no way of knowing since this God never told you but if you don't do anything you are sent to be tortured for enegery for all eternity.
To put it bluntly and using real life not fantasy the Christian cult was created by the Roman's to co trol the masses , they took other stories like Jesus gnostic teaching publicly tortured him for teaching ppl to send a message then the perverted his teaching threw out books and changed it to control ppl all while using the torture device and public torture as a "religious symbol" or really its used to remind them what happens when you don't do what they want.
It is equivalent to white ppl taking a black dudes teaching perverting it using it to manipulate ppl lynching him then making a religion like his but manipulated oh and using a noose with the lynched black man and their religious symbol.... that is beyond fucked up.
If Jesus does exist he is prolly so upset that you wear around a torture device and are apart of this weird death cult that wants to drink Jesus blood and eat his flesh and they likely did this originally and that's why we must still symbolize cannibalizing gods son? Seriously how can you read that book and not see something is fucked up you do know the price paid in other mythos for killing a God right? Let alone God's favorite now imagine they killed and tortured this Jesus who is also God and ate him.... this is some sick demon worship bro I hate to break it to you but the one your worshipping is evil and is the Satan and devil they say to fear tho the book does say if will decive the masses and that means the masses of Christians so this devil said it will decive you by doing just that. It's weird your taught to question everyone but God lol in fact Adam and eve were not kicked out until they had knowledge so your God also is anti knowledge and why would omni God care? It would want you to have knowledge they only ones who don't want you to know things are the ones tricking you.
So really either this is all made up cult bs, or it's real and you worship a evil child sacrificing mass human sacrifice false God.
I mean a perfect being can't create imperfection.
Also if your the omni only God you wouldn't need to say your the only God and not to worship others you would just say I am God period. Tho likely Christianity plagerized it all from sumerians over 2k years before its either a interesting fantasy story or a story about aliens and how they Got involved with us.
Also any creator God is aliens they are not from earth and created it therefor they are alien so make sure you note that your worship a alien that tried to genocide humans and sent murder angels to do mass child sacrifices in the center of town and kill anyone who didn't hand over their first born son , really for your God to be all the omni as it claims would mean God is also Satan and also me and you, God is the child and the old man raping the child that is himself , that means when two ppl that are God because God is everyone and everyrhing that when someone hurts another it's God hurting itself? Why would this God hurt and kill and cause all this damage to itself? Sounds like this God is far from perfect and is a sick messed up demon that even enjoys self harm that or your God isn't the 3 omni as it's shown not to be and that makes your God a lier for stating it is, it's ironic who ever wrote the Bible clearly didn't understand the 3 omni lol and fair most humans can't seem to grasp what they would mean
The cat discovering its ears is, at least to me, proof enough that cats, too, can recognise themselves. Otherwise, it wouldn't have reached for its own ears while staring at its reflection. Same is true with the cat and the owner behind it showing the finger. I can also confirm very similar behaviour from my own cats.
I can confirm this too.
Sadly I no longer have a cat, but from experience they are very intelligent animals :)
Cats are much smarter than dogs. The reason they are so difficult to train most of the time is because they do not care about a human anywhere near as much as a dog does. What I've seen from people who do have cats that care about them as much as a dog would is that cats are generally easier to train
What cat are yall talking about
What about the cat that saw the owner in the video putting his finger towards it in the mirror and then turning back on the correct side. That one too is good
The cat touching her own ears after seeing them in the mirror was one of the cutest things ever.
Wym "them?" 🤨
Since I can't reply to everyone I'll just edit my comment.
Damn I didn't even expect people to actually get mad at my comment. I literally made this comment as a joke and people took it too personal lmao, that just shows how people get angered that easily.
@shaunmiael9996 if you are joking then shame on me I’m an idiot, but “them” is referring to the ears it’s plural because there is ya know two ears.
Tbh if i didn't know i had ears like that i'd act like the cat
@@JusttShaun, ESL cringe
@@JusttShaun lol look at this kid
That elephant really loved the way he looked , he checked every angle 😭
Elephants are so smart its incredible. But ya that was great
I really love that reaction as well. Man, smart as they can be, they are truly gentle giant of respecting them and be kind to them. I kept watching that part of enjoying himself over and over it made my day so good too. 😆😁🙂
Lmfao elephants w !!!
Let's hear it for that pachyderm pride! 🐘 😎👍
He said oh miss thing I have body ody odyyyyyy Miss thing these trunks are giving c*nt, Boots.
The lion was genuinely curious! 🤩
I liked how the elephant was the only one who was surprised by seeing itself and checked every part to see. Pretty cool!
I just love the idea of animals being so confused how their enemy in the mirror is prediction and countering every single move they make.
That happened to a kitten on walter santi's channel, it kept making aggressive stances and then feeling threatened by the "other cat's" aggressive stance 😂
"This guy's good..."
Straaaaange, isn't it?
The absolute devastation to realize that "other animal" is better in battling them then they thought only to realize that's them 😂
They’re caught in an infinite loop 🤣
Most other animals: Admiration, confusion, asoundment, fear, shock, curiosity, wraith
White tiger: Nah I've already seen him before 🥱
3:05
My cat react the same way when I showed him a mirror, I was excited for no reason he look so bored lol
This is incredible ironic considering his species is slowly going extinct.
@@KillMe7183 I guess it's THAT easy to tell I'm horrible at biology or just animal facts in general.
But eh, you get the point so
I've never met this man in my life
The Cat in the Beginning Had a "Damn I Look Good " Moment when it grabbed its ear looking in the mirror 😂😂😂
All my cats not only understood mirrors but used them to stare around corners etc. I think part of this might be utility. if there's no reason for an animal to utilize its reflection it will dismiss it.
I’ve seen so many cats understand how mirrors work and what they are. There was a trend where a filter changed the owner’s appearance to a cat like thing and the cats immediately realized and looked at the owners. Most of them freaked out😂. It’s just amazing how how much smarter they are than i thought they are
I love how cats are such a wildcard. Either they are adorable and smart, or they are VERY DISPLEASED about their new rival.
now all those animals have ego and narcissism
I think that cats wil eventually learn what a reflection is. I have a cat who used to attack her reflection, and crash into mirrors, but now she uses them to groom herself and interect with me. Additionally, my younger cat still doesn't know what a mirror is, and tries to play with what she thinks is another cat.
@Redemption don’t care. Cats are useless creatures
@@xxjoebamaxx7782 She probably got bored of it, and it just so happens that she grooms in front of the mirror sometimes. Also they know what a reflection is, they've seen reflective surfaces before, they don't understand what a mirror is.
@Redemption yeah that's true. My cat immediately recognised her reflection when I tried to fool her
The Lion''s confusion shows smarts. He knows a lot of his world through good hearing and smell and even touch with whiskers. He's smart enough to be quite weirded out by this hallucination-like ghost lion that has no scent or sound, but is clearly extremely close to him. I respect him for being utterly thrown.
Underrated comment
The cars going by in the background being 30 ft away from the lions had me thrown 😂
I respect him for being utterly thrown is kind of exaggerated.
My cat behaved identically for 30 mins then figured it out. Maybe the lion would figure it out eventually too.
yo btw why it was so close to road?
He really called that leopard a cheetah.
Can't really expect much from a lazy 'creator' that uses an AI voice script to know the difference between the two, lol.
“Dogs lack self awareness” was hilarious to hear suddenly 😭
I once had a rooster who would just stand in front of a mirror admiring himself, this rooster I had was highly aggressive but I never saw him attack the mirror so I believe he knew it was himself.
What a cocky rooster.
I got some news for ya, your rooster is gay
Oh, thats quite interesting. Perhaps he was more inteligant than the norm.
I think he was thinking, man I look great.
probably thought he met his match 😭
I had a pet lizard who learned how reflections worked. At first he had an aggression response, puffing himself out. But then, he calmed down and started licking the mirror, turning his head from side to side, and even closing his eyes reaaallly slowly before opening them up quickly. Really reminded me of when I was a kid trying to see how I looked with my eyes closed.
"If I don't look at it, it'll go away...If I don't look at it, it'll go away...If I don't look at it, it'll go away..."
Not to mention human toddlers often don't know that's them at first too. So it also doesn't put humans above other species, if that other animal doesn't know at first and then figures it out.
when I was a kid I tried to see how I looked with my eyes closed too 😂
@@cynacist1823 I mean obviously humans are still wayy smarter than any other animal but yeah it’s neat that some animals have learned this self awareness at an earlier age than we do but of course that’s probably also due to the fact that some of them just mature and reach adulthood quicker than humans do.
@@kentuckybeararms2779 It's been around 15 years since the invention of the iphone. Before that, it wasn't really common for people to just have a camera lying around, and especially kids, we didn't really have much technology around to use. At most we had a computer, but there wasn't the internet too, so apart from single player games and work, they weren't used for much. For us millennials it would have been extremely uncommon to think of a camera just to see ourselves. A mirror was way easier to use (even though you can't see yourself with your eyes closed. Kids are dumb XD )
The bear and cat remind me of a quote: “You yourself will always be the worst enemy you can encounter”. 😁Meanwhile the dolphins know how adorable they are in the mirror! 😂😂
that was funny how the dolphins appeared to be acting silly. they probably do this with other dolphins when they're joking around. very cool species, they are capable of having a social structure, family, and don't act their age from time to time. very similar to humans
I appreciate your positivity - it makes this community truly wonderful!
The kitty discovering its ears was so adorable 😍
what if was was deaf? idk. Surely not.
Definitely self aware. I wonder if he will realize he is a cat.
@@nomadiavan6560 What do you mean if he realizes he is a cat?
The word cat is a human invention. Will he know that he’s a different type of creature from his owners? Maybe.
@@Brandon-br7tc Most cats are able to distinguish the differences between cats and humans. This is demonstrated in how they ask for help from humans with tasks humans are better at than they are, such as opening a can of wet cat food. With how many instances there are of wild critters asking humans for help, there's a good chance others can distinguish the differences, too.
@@hauntedshadowslegacy2826 in fact, almost any animal can tell the difference between a lot of spicies. They need it to survive, they need to know whos a treat and who is a friend. Because they live in placea where the only thing isnt predators and them. There are predators, yes, but also other herbivores that dont represent a threat for them.
That applys for any animal.
I love how the elephant quickly realized it could see parts of its body it had never seen before! I remember doing that as a kid 😆
Oh hell nah

1:41 Interesting that cat is CLEARLY self aware, not reaching over to the ears in the reflection but to its own ears.
I would not say cleary, even without capslock, I saw cats in my yard do this countless times, without a mirror present.
The framing fo the video does nto help the confirmation bias of cat lovers either.
Either way don't think this is a solid example for self awareness and uncomparable in evidential weight to the magpie with the yellow sticker under it's beak whcih removes it after being infront of a mirror.
@@AGenericFool Since you see fit to assume a mantle of higher education, I'm interested in learning your perspective on those cats which react strongly when subjected to those apps that swaps faces.
@@AGenericFool I think atleast my cat is self aware about reflections. It has never reacted to reflections in anyway and does groom itself in front of the mirror. Also if I pop behind, my cat immediately turns back to look at me, thus understanding i am not inside the mirror.
I geniunely think mirror test will be dependent on how much time is give to each animal in front of the mirror. Over time you would expect them to understand that its a reflection similar to how they are reflected in water.
If i didnt know anything about mirror and reflections, maybe i would react in the same way.
The most amazing to me is the fact that dolphins are able to recognise their reflection.
@@blipblop5757 Funny thing... I would swear to you that my 13 yr old Cavalier- Maverick, used to NOT really look at himself or me in the mirror. On the other hand, I've noticed a couple times recently that he has actually use the mirror to look me in the eyes/face! I think he has come to realize what it does.
my cat seems aware of its own reflection. But he jsut dont care

Elephants are super-intelligent. My uncle teased one at my local zoo (when he visited us) by offering food and when elephant reached to take it, he withdrew it.
A channel of water separates people from elephants in that zoo (among other things). The teased elephant took water from there and poured it on my uncle, who was completely wet.
Lol so deserved
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 well done, elephant
Antonio.Good. Your uncle was mean and he deserved the punishment.👍
hahaha get pranked
Do the mirror test on the uncle
My dog LOVES looking at himself in the mirror. Hes really into watching us pet and love on him in the mirror. Its adorable and really makes him happy.
This is so funny!! You can definitely tell which animals know they're looking at themselves!!!!!
Fun fact: Dogs do in fact have self-awareness, they simply don't pass the mirror test because they rely more on smell. But they will recognize their own scent markers in similar experiments.
Yep, if dogs ran this experiment on humans they would be laughing at us for being unable to recognise our own smell
Very true. Also, the mirror test is not necessarily the best test of self-awareness because it was developed for humans. I’m finishing the last year of my PhD in animal cognition at Cambridge.
@@jamiegdubois Yeah, I like how the video mentioned vision differences. I'm sure there are many other sensory differences that would make the mirror test null for other animals. Really interesting! Good luck with your dissertation :)

Mirrors are something we take for granted. Imagine what an experience it must be for animals!
Here, let me remind ye all again, HUMANS ARE NOT ANIMALS. HUMANS are SPIRITS, created in the IMAGE OF GOD. CREATED IN 3 PARTS: SPIRIT + SOUL + BODY = LIVING SOUL. Animals are created different; in 2 parts: SOUL + BODY. Animals do not have everlasting part: THE SPIRIT. Humans are NOT ANIMALS and can survive ALONE 100%. After the FLOOD, only 8 souls, from millions of humans, survived. ONLY 8 SOULS lived through the FLOOD. Mankind started only with population of 2 souls. How can you all here ever understand and accept the truth if still filling your own heads with nonsense? How can LIES help to understand and accept TRUTH? - lies ant helpful, are these? A human soul and the whole population of humans need only one being in their lives:GOD. Romans 8:16chapter context similar meaning copy save The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: John 4:24chapter context similar meaning copy save God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. If you have GOD in your life, YOU THEN HAVE EVERYTHING. Luke 12:22chapter context similar meaning copy save And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. Matthew 6:25chapter context similar meaning copy save Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Matthew 6:31chapter context similar meaning copy save Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? Matthew 10:19chapter context similar meaning copy save But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak. Cant any of you read? GOD Himself clearly saying to MANKIND: take no thoughts nor worrie, for GOD shall provide all that ye need.
Isaiah 11:2chapter context similar meaning copy save
And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD;
Mankind being called “animals” is because to keep us in delusions that life is random and not a big deal.
Our lives on this earth is BIG DEAL, and if lived wrong, evil ways, then HELL FIRE shall be our everlasting “home” full of torment; regrets + burning in fire that
does not go out.
Our lives on this earth is TEST, we all are tested by GOD, daily, to let GOD see:
- how quickly we turn angry,
- how weak are we, in battles against different temptations,
- How long can we love and care about others,
- how many evil situations can we go through before we break,
- are we hunger for truth,
- are we satisfied with lies,
- are we guarded or easily deceived.
Mirrors are common in wete regions.

Brilliant aint it? Chimps have recently been discovered self medicating using a particular insect by squeezing it and rubbing it on thier gums, the insect is found to have a multitude of antibiotic and anti bacterial properties in them... Go figure that. Intelligence I believe is universal but has a wide variety of applications hence its different forms actually I know that to be true although I don't have evidence like people seem to need for even things that are clearly obvious.
The whole corvid family does this as well.
My old kitty understood mirrors. I'm not sure if she ever quite understood her _own_ reflection since she never showed any interest in it, but she'd watch me around corners through the mirror, and if she was facing the mirror and I reached out to pet her she'd react to it, preparing to get pet from behind. She also seemed to recognize that speaking to the mirror-me was the same as speaking to the real me, and would sit on the counter as I got ready in the mornings, talking enthusiastically to my reflection. So she definitely understood the concept to some degree. It was always funny looking over into the hallway and seeing her staring at me from the other room through the mirror 😂
How many mirrors do you have?
@@Axels200927 we have lots
@@howdyho6775 dam
there may also be another explanation. The cat may simply be mistaking your hand in the mirror with something he is seeing. It is not that the cat knows that it is him, in the reflected image. But by simply seeing your hand reflected, he simply processes the image as if he were seeing it, with his eyes. In fact, the cat's eyes have a very apliatic view compared to the human one and therefore he could process the information thinking that he is seeing it with his eyes.
@@erosgritti5171 I don't see how that would explain the cat knowing the hand is coming from behind. My cat does the same thing and he is absolutely aware that I'm actually behind him.
The other interesting thing in my cat's case is that he hates other cats, so while he doesn't seem to care much about his reflection, if he recognizes it as a cat at all, he knows it's him.

I've moved a magpie that had been hit by a car(not fully dead) out of the street, it panicked. The others attacked me at first thinking I was hurting it, then when I sat down and just held (it until it passed as there are no bird refuges in the area) the others eventually just fluttered down and stayed with us and when It finally passed I placed it on a makeshift bedding beneath a tree, I'd bring wildflowers, pretty rocks, or shinys to the spot when I passed by it. After about a month I would find some extra trinkets there, so I sat in the distance and waited to see who was doing it. It was the other magpies, they had been watching me bring stuff to the spot and started doing it themselves when I would fail to coneby and do it.
I love this.

I’ve raised my share of kitties and can honestly say that most cats understand the concept of a mirror after a while. Their reactions after the initial surprise range from disinterest to a little “checking themselves out” moment.
This doesn’t apply to all cats though, but most I’ve ever met
This video has been a real eye opener . Its enabled me to cut down my shaving time by 10 minutes.....no more looking behind the mirror to identify the intruder in my bathroom.
To save people time and distress , I think this should be explained in the instructions that come with shaving mirrors .
This is underrated. I'm also a dog.
☝️🤣🤣
LOL
Do not fall for the government’s lies the man in the mirror is real and he will attack when you least expect it
I love the mirror , coz am so handsome yah!
I hope all the self aware animals liked what they saw and realised how adorable they are
I think they care more about eating and not being eaten 😂
@@DOKZAONE 😂💀💀
They don't have instagram, I'm sure they're fine.
@@okaynope5197 bruh, that isn’t what they- nvm
Usted .
For those who don't know, there are 8 species on earth identified to be "self-conscious" who allows them to, for example, to acknowledge themselves in front of a mirror, and those are :
Humans, ofc
Chimpazees
Gorillas
Bonobos
Orangutans
Magpies
Dolphins
Elephants
Any other specie will see a foe (most likely) or a friend in rare cases, that's why dogs for example get confused when confronted to a mirror, because to them, another dog appeared out of nowhere in their home, so it's a threat to them and they act menacing.
There’s a few others that are heavy maybes because of difficulties in testing. Basically all species of Whale, giant manta rays, etc. too big, too rare, and too under water to really get clear answers.
I couldn't atop watching, great video
it took the pig hours to figure it out and they are very intelligent, most other animals never figured it out, but the elephant almost immediately is checking its own teeth out, that just shows how smart they really are.
It was a piglet to be fair, not fully grown
I’ve seen pigs learn quicker than monkeys in tests in a documentary. Shocked me.
Four legs good, two legs bad.
How about the silver back checking out his tongue 😂
Im pretty sure the pig just smelt the food that was 3 inches away and went to it lol
I like how elephants, cats, magpies, and pigs not only recognize themselves, but they are among the few animals that use the mirrors “correctly”
(not toying with it, but using it to check its own body and appearance, and using it as a tool the same way we do)
And dolphins!
You forgot great apes.. Chimps, bonobo, orangutans, gorilla's.
Well all of these are known for their intelligence. So great, now we know mirror is good IQ test for animals lol
Not all cats do recognize themselves though...
Dogs too
Bear like,"Yo,quit playing man.That ish ain't funny .Somebody coulda got hurt ".
Your kind words are like a virtual hug. Thanks for spreading warmth and positivity!
Thanks for contributing to a positive atmosphere. It makes a difference!
Almost every time I'm standing in front of the mirror with my cat. She is looking at me through it. It's crazy that she understands so easily how mirrors work 😳
They may have seen their reflection before in puddles
@@dylanmurphy9389 Puddles if they're outdoor cats, or windows. My cat would fight with her reflection in the windows until she realized there was no other cat and it was her. 😂
@@Jolene8 My cat just kind of stare at her reflection and seem disinterested by it lol, not even a reaction
Adult cats know it's them in mirrors
@@SynthMellow I think sometimes people disregard cats as intelligent or somewhat capable because they usually do things out of their own willingness, not unwavering loyalty or trust like dogs
3:15:"Yeah, I'm gorgeous. I know that. "
2:58 😒
0:35 exactly my cat with mirrors
3:00 lol they’re like “alright just like a quick sip then we bounce-that’s some painted dogs right there, they’re dangerous!”
I watch this every time my feed brings it up for me because it is just so cool
My cat not only recognizes himself in the mirror, but also looks at me through it to try and get my attention.
Edit: For those interested, feline in question: ruclips.net/video/lXx0GS_4Mrw/видео.html
My cat not only recognizes her reflection but often grooms herself in front of it to make sure she is perfectly presentable at all times and not a single strand of hair is out of place.
my cat likes to freak me out by staring at me through the mirror... for no particular reason
Wow thats really somethin!!! understands that YOU too will be able to see the reflection that he is seeing.
Mine too!!
My cat doesn’t care about the mirror
0:50
You don't want any car problems in this area..
Beautiful video! I Loved it!
Elephant: "Damn I look good."
Cheetah: "FRIEND!"
Bear: "HOLYSHITBEAR!"
My cat was the same way. He used to lay on my bed and face the mirror on the dresser, and whenever I quietly moved my hand toward his back end like I was gonna grab him or poke him, he recognized immediately that it was my hand and he always turned his head toward me and meowed. I was so impressed because I thought my cat was the only cat on earth able to recognize reflections until I seen the cat in this video responding to his owner's reflection in the same way.
My cat does the same thing, someone else also commented that their cat does that. So it seems to be more common than people think.
@@some-one-else I think it’s a blanket statement to say certain species don’t have self-awareness, I think there are some outliers with higher intelligence who may recognize themselves if even in a crude abstract way. Just as many deer have evolved to recognize car headlights and wait to cross the road, I don’t see no reason cats raised in captivity for a few centuries can’t learn to figure things out in a household of which mirrors are common.
@@mikeg2491 Mirrors have only become common pretty recently
@@mikeg2491 yeah it’s really interesting, because I had a cat who just thought his reflection was another cat, and would hiss at it. And another who seemed to know it was her.
@@mikeg2491 The difference is that if an animal doesn't understand headlights, it dies, thus selecting for animals that are weary of them. The same is not true for mirrors
1:20
For anybody wondering, that isn’t a cheetah. It’s a leopard.
It's a leopard called Cheetaro who lived at Big Cat Rescue ten years go. He's in the 'big cats and mirrors' on their RUclips.
Also wrong. Leopards generally have solid spots while a Jaguar has orange spots otherwise known as rosettes within their spots. Jaguars are bigger and are totally the badass of the big cat community.
And they aren't social creatures
@@mrtech2259 male cheetah will hang out together sometimes but usually break up after a while... Usually the juveniles getting their feet! Jaguars yes (and leopards)
Yep, definitely not a Cheetah.
I love ❤ this mirror test because it focused on a wide range of species and how they react to their reflection. I was a bit disappointed with the octopus since there’s a lot of documentation on their intelligence but can’t discern their own reflection.However the magpies were a pleasant surprise that they can recognize their own reflection.
Damn, that bear wasn't playing around lol.
My chihuahua understands mirrors and has used them since he was about 1 year old. He sometimes stares at a mirror in the back of our dining room to get a better view of what’s on the table
Absolutely. Anyone who thinks dogs can't recognize themselves or even worse "that they lack self-awareness" as this video claims, is in crass error.
@@JosefK2275 if yuj really looked some dogs did and some of dogs didn't recognize themself
yeah i have 2 dogs, one completely understands mirrors and is aware of his reflection, the other is clueless. I think it just depends on the dog
Same goes for our cats, one older cat always gets freaked out when she comes near a mirror and another one knows we comb hair near a mirror and starts meowing to us to comb her the same way by sitting in front of it.
"My chihuahua looks at food"
It sees the food. It's not using a mirror on purpose or anything, it just sees the food. How is this so hard for you people? Do you understand how mirrors work? You see things in them. If a dog sees food it looks at it, it's pretty straightforward.
I swear, if a dog shit on your math homework you'd think it understood math cause there were two turds there.
the way the chihuahua’s tail started wagging once it recognized its human was so cute
The White Tiger..... Is this a joke ? Where's my food?😂😂😂😂
Took care of a little dog for a couple years who made eye contact with my reflection in the bathroom mirror. Everyone thought he was weird. I always thought he was self aware. He had all the traits of a curious 4 year old child.
Yup!! I'd swear that my dog has done the same, recently.
Bunny, the talking dog, also reported seeing her "mom" wave to her in the mirror after that happened.
Bunny did not recognize herself in the mirror all on her own, but has learned that it's supposed to be her. But I have the impression she is sceptical about that fact.
It's likely that the fact that the mirror image has no smell makes all the difference to dogs.
Maybe to them it is as if we would see a ghost bearing our resemblance. We can tell it looks like us, but we know it IS not us - it is another entity altogether.
There are exceptions to the rule. The narrator obviously isn’t very knowledgable about animals, especially for mistaking the jaguar for a cheetah. Some dogs do have self awareness, but not in general for the whole species, same for other animals, while the species as a whole may not be self aware, some individuals are.
Some dogs are a bit dumb, but some, like a dog we rescued, must be doggy geniuses.
To be fair, the test is different if the animal isn't alone before the mirror, it's easier to understand if there are others.
Though yeah, not all animals can do that either.
I hope the puppy at 4:20 eventually got a real doggo friend.
He's soo cute 🥺
Rooster: HA HA! FINALLY, A WORTHY FOE! Take THIS! And THAT! And parry THIS!
7:43 OOHUHHHH YUH YUH YUH‼️
3:56 HELP-- THIS IS SO CUTE 😭💕💕
Elephants are so amazing it doesn't surprise me they want to check out their mouth. ❤💕
Did you know that an elephant has no stomach at all?

I didn't know that Bud,thank you for the info.👌
Happy Halloween 🎃

Humans:I can't I have enough salary?😢
Animals:Nice Mirror
Me in the mirror: Im ugly, Im fat
Animal in the mirror: I am PERFECTION!
1:45 that cats just looks so cute and adorable 😍
why is no one talking about the squirrel stuck in that woman’s house 😭😭😭 at 2:10
That’s his pet
@@Small_Schlonng_9000 they were saying “please go out the window oh my god”
Many birds come to my window every morning and keep on hitting at their reflections... Especially woodpeckers😅... It's like an alarm cause they hit so hard. I get to watch them from so close literally behind the glass.
Tiger looking at himself: damn I was handsome
The bear’s reaction always cracks me up! He just destroyed the mirror. 😂
Bear: "I'm not that fat!"
@@gusionparsley1491 hahahaha
He first thought he crossed paths with an actual adversary then quickly realized he was dealing with a portal to another dimension and wanted no part of such dark technology.
@@gusionparsley1491 lol
Cracks you up just like the mirror.
2:36 Yeah, my cat does that too. He figured it out when he made eye contact with me through the mirror and I slow blinked at him. He turned around and ran up to me, purring.
To cats, constant stare shows aggression but slow blink shows you trust them to let your guard next to them. Cats have their weird things.
@@dovyr7719 Yeah, I've known about the slow blink for years. That's why I did it, lol.
More evidence (as if we needed it) that cats MUST take over and rule the world (before we destroy it).
Narrator: which is a little heart breaking :)
Music: 🕺💃🕺💃
In thumbnail, the leopard knows martial arts now
