Description

The Pig Mirror serves as a valuable tool in various experiments focused on awareness, cognition, and learning. In one notable study, it demonstrated that pigs could comprehend what a mirror image represents and use it to gather information.

During the experiment, young pigs were placed in a pen with a mirror. They moved around, seemingly observing their reflections. After spending five hours with the mirror, the pigs were presented with a familiar food bowl that was visible only in the mirror, hidden behind a solid barrier. Impressively, seven out of eight pigs found the food bowl within an average of 23 seconds by moving away from the mirror and navigating around the barrier. In contrast, naïve pigs, which had no prior exposure to the mirror, looked behind it.

Mazeengineers provides the Pig Mirror for such experimental purposes.
