It's funny you say that, because I was just watching a video of great apes looking at themselves in a mirror that scientists set up in the jungle. Once they got over the fear and realized they were seeing themselves, one of the things multiple apes did was look at their assholes.
They tried to look at every part of their body. Yes, this includes the asshole.
The video I was watching they were very specifically looking at their assholes. They were putting their leg up on the mirror to get a better view
Maybe they had read this thread
