Self Aware Monkeys Learn About Anatomy Using Mirrors

Chimpanzees, for instance, are famous for their individuality and remarkably human-like behavior, even playing dress-up in front of mirrors and referring to themselves in sign language. However, a new study shows that "lesser" monkeys can learn the concept of "self" as well, even using mirrors to become familiar with their own bodies.
