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.
Unique mazes at the exact same cost as off the shelf ones. This way, it fits exactly what you need. No mazes too small for strains, lingering odors cues stuck in hard to clean areas, and other major design flaws that affect reproducibility. Also, unique mazes help you publish new protocol papers and standards if you have an idea. I think this key in furthering the techniques used in neurobehavior.…
