I think we will find that applying human tests for sense of self can't be applied to other animals.
Our primary test is visually based such as a mirror/marker test which doesn't work for animals that have relatively poor eyesight (dogs) or avoid eye contact (gorillas) or just don't fit our concepts of how self awareness should manifest.
