We Are Told Animals Can't Comprehend Death, Or Mourn Their Own, But What Do You See?
The Squirrel Who Stands Guard Over An Injured Friend :
The Elephants That Grieve Over Their Dead :
The Cat That Won't Leave His Dead Friend's Side :
Why do we assume they have 'human emotions'?
Why do we judge the way they treat their own dead by the way we treat ours?
Wouldn't it be more likely that cats, squirrels, elephants, dogs, apes, would have different interpretations of their own emotions, not only from us, but from other animals as well?
One day we may learn the inherent culture and morality of different animals, morality and culture embedded in their genetic memories, is in fact far more complicated than our own, and more evolved than we could ever have imagined.
