[@moondog7694]

But maybe by saving the orphans, they are depriving apex predators and other carnivores and herbivores of the forest from eating enough, and they'll starve to death? Like the stellar sea lions who don't have enough high-calorie fish to eat, and instead get full on lower-calorie fish, which deprives their bodies of the energy they need to reproduce?

Were the bear, the lion and the tiger all kept in the same basement as kids? That would explain, to my mind, why they get along. They are old war buddies, they’ve been through the same war, fighting on the same side. To see sunlight again. They were all lonely and they kept each other company, and they were the closest thing that any of them had to a friend. No outside influence to tell them that they were different, or couldn’t get along, or shouldn’t get along. Now they’re inseparable.

We deem ourselves, people as the benchmark of understanding and through our pride think that means in everything. 18 years ago, a mare I had foaled and according to the vet, died shortly afterward... what was amazing is that when I found her with my late wife, the foal was laying at the side of a hay bail with three coyote pups and their mother, still liking the fluid from his coat and face. Before God created man, He created all living creatures, in that Garden of Eden, those animals were in communion with each other, and I firmly believe that within the animal kingdom, there's a better understanding of what "communion" means. The understanding of what compassion is, is not our domain alone, nor understanding love... it is universal, no matter the genetic sequence Happy thanksgiving to you. We had ours

If I call my cat with a random name she doesn't react but if I call her by name she immediately starts purring. She approaches and displays nothing less than affection!

I think with animals they communicate differently than us so we don't always understand it. What we see as savagery is just being upfront with eachother.

Ive noticed a lot of animals, especially cats, can have a "fight" and then an hour later start playing like best friends. 🤔 Just thought this might be an interesting thing to add on as mine are house cats and have fortunately never had to experience poverty. I do however have a feral living in my shed and she's a lot different personality wise. Very sweet little girl! Thank you for looking after them, they need all the help they can get. X

[@erniesulovic4734]

@@alantaylor6691 Not off hand, i don't

[@alantaylor6691]

@@erniesulovic4734 Ok. So I find the square-cube law very helpful. For example I can tell you how much a person will weigh if he you scaled his height up to 12'0" from 6'0"/180 lbs. Most people might assume that a 12-foot person will be twice the weight of its 6-foot counterpart given they are twice the height. But it doesn't work like that. It works according to the square-cube law so that a person that is 12-foot will be 8-times heavier than their 6-foot counterpart. Both have the exact same proportions but one is scaled up and one is scaled down. Now you can use this square-cube law to know the scaled height and weight of any 3D objects using the square-cube law. So to get the weight of a 12-foot man scaled from 6'0"/180 lbs: (12/6) (to the power of 3). Multiplied by 180. You could replace "mass" by "volume" if you need to. I'm not a maths person but have an amateur interest in knowing animal weights, so that's how I came across. It's just so handy. Because I"m not a maths person I can't explain the theory behind it well, but if you look it up you'd probably understand better than I. Now Robert Wadlow, the tallest man in recorded history, at 8'11" was a lean 495 lbs. If you scaled him down to 6'0" what would be his weight?

There is no chance in HELL that a benevolent, omnipotent, omniscient god created this world.

I've had the honor to be witness to a very complex display of Empathy in one of our Dogs, Jo. She was a Wheaten Terrier who sadly passed away in 2017, at the age of 13. However, back in 2009, my Wife & I had her & her older 'Sister' Betty. In the summer, Betty was almost killed by our neighbor's Pit-bull/Akita mix & I had to take him on with my bare hands to save Betty's life. (But that's another story...) Anyway, after that event, Jo was enormously protective of Betty, who was 13 at the time & Jo became extremely aggressive around other dogs. Sadly, we made the mistake of fostering a young abused Husky Puppy, Maya, only a few months after the attack & also didn't let Jo meet Maya in Neutral Territory, which didn't help matters. Jo was so upset, we had to constantly monitor her for weeks after, because it always looked like she was going to attack Maya at the drop of a hat. Thankfully however, after about a month or so, Jo came to tolerate Maya, though she absolutely did not like her. Eventually we fully adopted Maya & after she turned about 8 months old, we took her to the Vet to get fixed. Now I have to back up a couple years, to put what Jo did to Maya after Maya got back from the Vet in better context: A couple years before Maya came along, my Wife had gotten very sick and had to stay in bed for a few days. At one point during that, Jo leaps onto the bed, gives my Wife a good sniffing, then jumps off & returns a little later with her favorite toy. She then places the toy on my Wife's head. The message was clear- 'This makes me feel better, it will make *you* feel better.' That in and of itself was an incredible expression of Empathy. But it gets better. Back to 2009- So I bring Maya in the house after her operation & she is tired & hurty & just flops down on a dog bed. A little while later, Jo, who still *clearly* did NOT like Maya at this point, comes up to Maya & also gives her a good sniffing.

[@annettefeatherstone3931]

I can truly attest to the fact that animals have a remarkable and peculiar way of communicating their feelings. Peculiar is a word I use because they don't have any reserve for showing love and affection. They simply have an innate understanding when anything means them harm or good. And for good they show thanks and affection. They are one of the best things in our lives. It will truly be a blessed day when we can be one of the best things in theirs. It tears me up to see or know that any animal is being abused and neglected... Especially something that can't defend itself.

[@MAC-jl7uk]

I think these remarkable, beautiful relationships blossom where these animals don't have to be concerned about where their next meal is coming from or when and around what corner that deadly encounter might be. It's because of this the lion can truly lay down with the lamb, because of food security and just plain security.

[@parrisprice5892]

Liz the narrator, really is very precise in her articulation ,as to the relationships these animals have bonded into. Your vsry perceptive n intelligent . Caring and understanding, much like the beautiful animals your observing. Great locales ,thanks

I loved that so much and i love how the people actually let the two completely different animals be close even tho there could have been a fight or an attack! (especially between the bear,tiger and lion)

[@TheRagingPlatypus]

I think the full stomach theory is spot on. Even in humans with dogs this varies. In more primitive cultures where food acquisition is important, pets are not purely pets...theynare useful friendly workers. They offer protection, pull sleight, help hunt etc. Only when all our needs are so fully provided for do we have pets just as "playthings".

[@beanboy1110]

i would more say companion than playthings but sure

[@MsZoedog66]

I firmly believe so, that animals can feel complex emotion. I do not think we are 'superior' in this or that there are necessarily solely biological reasons for the development of relationships between living things 💗🌵

In fact it seems that they are more "in tune" with their senses than humans. We allow logic and rationale to prevent us to be ruled by our senses.

Just watch a calf getting seperated from its mother.. or a dog missing its owner. As long as you "believe" in such things, you cant consider yourself a smart person. No insult in the first place, but some encouragement to widen you knowledge about living things. Like we humans dont know anything about our own body besides you start working out etc and get to know all that stuff. But i am glad to know the color of the turd from some guy or girl, which lived 2000 years ago. I think you get the point

I live on a farm and we've got several types of animals, including chickens, ducks and turkeys. Our oldest bird is a duck named Chuck. Originally we got 5 baby ducks, but unfortunately a giant rat ate 4 of the 5 and Chuck was the only survivor. The chickens kind of adopted him and despite getting more ducks later on, Chuck seemed to prefer the company of chickens. In particular, he developed a special fondness for black hens lol. Just for him, we now make it a point to always have at least a couple black hens for Chuck. It's obvious at this point that Chuck considers himself a rooster, not a duck. He even mounts his black hens like the roosters do. Not only does he see himself as a rooster, but all the other roosters clearly pay reverence to Chuck as the top rooster. It's by far the oddest dynamic on our farm lol.

[@AnotherLifeWithoutU]

From all animals or birds I've been in contact or seen in my life, I can say not only they can feel emotions, but much more beyond this: is no common language with them, so they must be telepathic in a certain way; they are spiritually evolved and they protect us many times; they also feel when we're in danger or when we are sick. Now, I haven't met many humans like this, so I think the question should be asked otherwise.

Here’s a little more leaning you may have not thought about if you’re interested. She completely ignores, or lacks the education to comprehend the very simple fact that humans are also animals. Humans are absolutely the most powerful predators on this planet. Even more vicious, brutal and territorial than any Lions, tigers, or bears. Yet… Do humans not form bonds with thousands of other species? From Spiders to Elephants, and everything in between. So, why wouldn't there also be a certain level of empathy and care from other species towards other species as well. If I was her professor, I’d give her a C- or less, for this documentary… It’s like a 12-year-old child who’s never picked up a biology book wrote this documentary. Here's the best part for the gullible religious. Why is there empathy and care from one species towards another without the need of any threats of punishment from a god? Like us humans, no living creature (species) has ever needed any religious text, or a con-man’s advice to know what's right or wrong. Let me know if you've ever seen any other animal, including your house-pet. That’s ever learned any morals from any religious texts, etc... Yet... they seem to have a pretty good sense of morality.

Look into more the bear ended up killing the husky

[@cb3514]

@@raweatsmcloving5255 This sanctuary is for huskies, and the polar bears are completely wild and are free to come and go. It is technically illegal for humans to feed polar bears under Manitoba's Endangered Species and Ecosystems Act. The sanctuary was cited and no longer able to do so, even though they had the ability and fed them as a means of protecting the huskies rehabilitating in their care. Within a few days after this footage was taken & the sanctuary was cited and forced to stop providing food, a polar bear did get to a different husky in the middle of the night. Was it a polar bear randomly turning on a husky, OR was a stable food source taken and left the bears starving? The fact it took several days before the bears resorted to this is amazing in itself. Either way you look at it, humans interfering in the bear's food source had everything to do with the outcome. Humans in survival mode can be, and are just as fierce in survival mode. Had the government not forced such actions without a better plan implemented, and they not forcibly remove the food source, this incident would not have happened. In the end, it was a dire situation, and not unpredictability, that caused a tragedy.
