TABLE 5 (d) 



Before entering upon a discussion of the facts shown by 

 these tables, we must describe the behavior of the imitators, 

 when, after seeing 2 pull the string, they were put in alone. 

 In the opinion of the present observer there was not the 



1 No. 6, in trying to crawl out at the top of the box, put its paw in above 

 the string. It fell down and thus pulled the string. It did not claw at it, 

 and it was 16 seconds before it noticed that the door was open. In all 

 the other times that it escaped the movement was made in the course of 

 promiscuous scrambling, never in anything like the same way that No. 2 

 made it. 



2 No. 3 did not go out until 12 seconds had elapsed after it had pulled the 

 string.
