19、e joystick(操纵杆) game with their noses，moving a cursor(光标) to four targets on the screen. Although the animals didnt demonstrate the skills to win a round any time soon, they did show an understanding of some elementary games.Performing well above chance, the pigs appeared to recognize the movement o

20、f the cursor was controlled by the joystick.
