Animal Awareness
"Any valid measure or understanding of awareness in animals depends on an accurate and complete knowledge of its essential conditions in man"
- Harvey Carr
Animal consciousness, or animal awareness, is the quality or state of self-awareness within an animal, or of being aware of an external object or something within itself.
The topic of animal consciousness is beset with a number of difficulties. It poses the problem of other minds in an especially severe form because animals, lacking the ability to use human language, cannot tell us about their experiences.
In 1927 the American functional psychologist Harvey Carr actively researched that any valid measure or understanding of awareness in animals depends on "an accurate and complete knowledge of its essential conditions in man". A more recent review concluded in 1985 that "the best approach is to use experiment (especially psychophysics) and observation to trace the dawning and ontogeny of self-consciousness, perception, communication, intention, beliefs, and reflection in normal human fetuses, infants, and children".
From pulse, we think that the environment is represented by our surrounds, and that includes any kind of life around us.
