A new study shws that rsters can identify(辨认) themselves in a mirrr. The surprising result raises questins nt just abut hw smart rsters are, but abut hw scientists test animal intelligence.
Scientists use Mark Test t test whether an animal can identify itself. First f all, a mark is put n an animal, usually in a place that can nly be seen with a mirrr. Then the animal is placed befre a mirrr. If it seems t pay attentin t the mark, scientists believe the animal has identified itself.
The Mark Test is ften seen as a gd way t learn hw smart an animals is. __▲__ Scientists at a university in Germany recently ran the Mark Test n rsters. They put a pink mark n the chest f the rsters. But when the rsters lked in a mirrr, they didn’t seem t ntice the mark.
S the scientists tried a new test by using the shadw(阴影) f hawk(鹰) t see whether r nt the rster thught it was alne. Rsters may make lud calls t warn nearby chickens when a hawk flies abve. If they’re alne, they remain quiet.
First, the scientists helped the rsters get used t being in a clsed -- in space and having a mirrr arund. After sme time, they tk the mirrr ut and ran several tests by making a hawk shadw appear abve the bird and watching hw it reacted.
When there was n mirrr, the rsters reacted as usual. They called ut when they were near anther rster, but remained quiet after the ther rster was taken ut by the scientists.
Then, the mirrr was put back. When a rster culd see itself in the mirrr, it remained silent even with the hawk shadw abve it. Later, the scientists put the ther rster behind the mirrr. It still didn’t make any sund.
The results shw that the rsters knew they were seeing themselves in the mirrr, and nt ther rsters. That shws that the Mark Test may nt be a gd test f whether an animal can identify itself.
The scientists hpe their results will encurage ther scientists t lk fr better ways f testing hw smart animals are. It may turn ut that sme kinds f animals are mre intelligent than peple thugh.
