They must be very upset then, that the Chinese are now controlling their flight

have very high esteem--much more than is warrented by their miniscule brains...

First, isn't some of this closely related to the self-recognition research
(e.g., the rouge test) that has been discussed before on this list?

be taught to pass the rouge test, thus demonstrating a 'sense of self'.
Whether they (the pigeons) had high self esteem is presently unknown.
