Ikran does everything you tell him to do

[Kätsyín te Zotxekay Tsyal’itan]

With a direhorse that is less specific, as Neytiri said, but with an ikran it goes very deep. Maybe it is not so much a bigger brain, but the level of intelligence that each brain possesses.

Could that be an indicator of higher evolution on the Ikran's part?

Thats likely. That it has the ability to choose who rides it tells me it has a sense of recognition.

I would indeed think so, yes. After all, it will try to kill you when you choose it, and that means something. Especially when you survive it. That means there is something that literally binds you.

It seems that the Ikran develops a sense of respect for its rider if he manages to catch it. Its kind of a "Huh, I didn't kill you, I guess I'll give you some respect."

That's exactly what I thought of the whole Ikran bonding sequence. To me, Tsaheylu seems to be like the rider giving a "compulsion" rather than an order. The bond itself, at least with Ikran and Toruk, seems to be one of mutual respect.

got to agree there.
