Emotion is a funny thing. We can feel it, sense it in others, or see it on people’s faces or in their body language. These images and the story they tell are a great example. Some people think animals aren’t capable of the complex emotions ascribed to the bird in these pictures.These pictures are heartbreaking and I have no doubt that they are real. I’ve been observing birds for years. I’ve seen a crow return to her nest in a tall pine to discover that city tree trimmers destroyed it. I heard her scream in grief - the eeriest and saddest sound I’ve ever heard.
It really makes you wonder about some things. This is a true sign that all mammals have some sort of heart or soul. Mothers care for their young and will even die for them. A prime example of this is the Mockingbird. It will die to protect it’s young and I feel that it has a connection with this. It’s very sad…
Anyone who truly believes that animals dont have emotions doesnt know a thing about animals. They have their rituals and their own cultures and ways of communicating just like people do. They have families and they love. There has been many examples of this behavior.
I think that some people need to believe that it is not true in order to feel superior to the animals, when in fact the quality that truly makes us superior is to recognize it and appreciate it and protect the animals vulnerable existance on this earth with.... the most evil and dangerous animal of all.... MAN-KIND!
