Novel object recognition. (a) Cumulative duration of contact with objects during the novel object recognition task. Interactions with the familiar object are represented with solid black circles, whereas the interactions with the novel object are represented by open circles. Pigs preferred to interact with a previously unseen novel object than with an object with which they had been previously habituated. An unpaired T-test yields a two-tailed p value of 0.0002, and an r-squared value of 0.41. (b) Average percentage of time pigs spent interacting with objects, split between interactions with the familiar object (black) and the novel object (gray). Pigs consistently interacted with the novel object more than the familiar object. Analysis via unpaired T-test gives a two tailed p value of less than 0.0001 and an R-squared value of 0.89.
