Ok but there's no way of knowing if they're truly feeling the emotion or just randomly emoting to get a reward. I've had a few as pets and they all did that.

was "i am sorry" or "i was wrong" one of the gestures?

Could be just a conditional response similar to Pavlov's dog. More study is needed by removing the rewards that may be his actual response. Let's not conclude anything based on just this one study.
