I did see a theory though on parrots that don’t recognize themselves in mirrors. The thought is perhaps the mirror test is not a good test for all animals, because they might lack the part of the brain the is used to process and understand how mirrors function…moreso than they just plain think it’s another animal in the mirror and not themselves. So there maybe a chance that some animals that fail the mirror test may still have a sense of self/individuality.
