Re: self-awareness and thought
If I may add to this: chimps have even been known to lie. One of two chimps broke something during the absence of a human caretaker. Upon returning, the caretaker - using sign language - asked the chimps who did it, and the guilty one pointed at the other one. It was not just thinking, but thinking ahead.
