A new study by researchers led by Masanori Kohda, a biologist at the Graduate School of Science in Osaka City University, shows fishes may have self awareness potentially on a par with animals such as chimpanzees and orangutans.
New Study Shows Fishes May Have Self Awareness
Fishes are so much smarter than the vast majority of people realize. It’s hard, though, to imagine a functioning animal who isn’t self-aware. If nonhuman animals knew what most humans think of them they would surely consider us to be the most oblivious species. A great book about fishes is What a Fish Knows: https://us.macmillan.com/books/9780374714338 See also: https://www.FishFeel.org
Thankyou Mary. I have only read extracts from the book, but have it on order from the library.
Sandra, it’s a treasury of information, and Jonathan writes in a very engaging way.
