Animals which can recognize themselves in the mirror

An animal recognizing itself in the mirror is a sign of its high intelligence. Humans only start recognizing themselves in the mirror after 18 months. Besides humans, these are the animals, which can recognize themselves in the mirror.

* Dolphins
* Killer Whales
* Chimpanzees 
* Bonobos
* Orangutans
* Gorillas (debated though)
* Asian Elephants
* Eurasian Magpie

Among these, the case of Eurasian Magpie is especially interesting, because until the study on magpies, self-recognition was thought to reside in the neocortex area of the brain, which is absent in birds.

Some of the videos, where different animals are recognizing themselves in the mirror, are shown below.

IF only we humans would look in the mirror to see how much destruction and greed we have in this world and live with a more mindful approach. Haha a different tangent but this is a lovely set of videos. I just wish to see us humans recognize ourselves and our actions more!
