10. Humans (homo sapiens) are highly over-rated. Some way more than others. Wink.

11. Are you perhaps confusing that alleged aphorism with the Mark Twain quote?

“Man is the only animal that blushes. Or needs to.”

12. Very sweet. (but only nature illiterates think that animals don't have emotions.)

Unfortunately we have a sadly large number of nature illiterates in this country.

I have witnessed animals crying over a tragedy having befallen one of theirs. I do not believe it is uncommon. But someone who doesn't pay attention might not notice a crow crying in sorrow, vs. a typical crow's vocalizations, for example.

(I don't think the illiteracy or not paying attention aspects apply to you pbmus. Thank you for sharing the photo. )

13. As a couple, we've had 10 puppers.....

4 are still with us. A small sample, but I'm convinced they all exhibit emotions similar in many ways to humans. They all have their own personalities and quirks. Some bond closer to me. Some to my better half. They all dream. I think we've only scratched the surface in human cognition, much less that of other species we share this plant with.

16. I follow some wildlife refuge sites on instagram

Elephants, rhinos, and bears.

They are beyond amazing in so many ways, including very close snd longstanding relationships with each other and with their care givers. Their resilience after hardship and heartbreak is breathtaking.
