We do know that other animals share similar/the same mental states as many and varied tests have been trialed on a myriad of different animal species to ascertain their responses and level of cognizants.
Such that a species of parrot (The 'Grey parrot' which I think is also well known for its language comprehension skills?) that has displayed/shown the behavior of 'Altruism'.
If different cognitive displays are not evidence of 'Consciousness'? What, perhaps, might be?
