Study Finds Body Awareness in Goffin's Cockatoos

Original: Body Awareness in Goffin's Cockatoos

A new study published in Scientific Reports examines body awareness in Goffin's cockatoos, a parrot species already known for advanced problem-solving and tool use. Researchers tested how the birds respond to their own bodies, adding to growing evidence that complex physical self-perception is not limited to mammals. Readers on Hacker News are sharing the findings, with discussion around what this means for animal cognition research.

Why now: A newly published study on self-awareness in a famously intelligent parrot species is drawing attention in science discussion circles.
