Foxes groom eachother

Staring Mala and Esmae

[@DanaTheLateBloomingFruitLoop]

*walks by* "And they were _groommates_ "

[@skykrasher4475]

Oh my god they were groommmates!

[@RandomHandleLol1738]

History books: And the two men formed a close bond, never leaving each others side. In their old age, they both lived in the same house and shared the same bed, and died at similar times. Historians: oh my god they were roommates

[@KRhythm2013]

The fascinating thing about a lot of animals is how their language is mostly through noises or gestures, complete lack of dialogue by both but Mala seemed to be happy with Esmae grooming in the right places

[@transpar5877]

If u think about it our communication is through noise and gestures

[@Mythosician06]

If they could talk like we do, they would.

[@chrisk1128]

For us humans, words makes up only 7% of our communication, Over half is gesture/physical queues and the rest is intonation and inflection, so they are not that different from us.

[@kittehgo]

@@Mythosician06 And then we would promptly tell them to shut up, cause 1. They will have alot to say and 2. Just about all of it will be embarrassing stuff. Remember animals have seen alot of personal stuff :)

[@solar0wind]

@@Mythosician06 Do you mean if they were physically able to, regarding their throats? Because no other animal can learn language like we do. We have special genes and regions in the brain that make us able to use grammar, more conplex language, fine details and stuff like that. But what several other species learnt was to string words together to express what they mean. As in "want tree" to say "I want to go to the tree". So they wouldn't speak exactly like we do, but they would still be able to tell us a few things they're thinking. You could compare it to a young, maybe mentally challenged child because even human babies already learn a lot about fine details in language, e.g. grammar, even when they can't speak themselves yet. Speech like humans use it, is so special that even one or two mutations in certain genes (that as far as I know no other animal has) makes you unable to properly speak forever. This is actually a really interesting topic. I'm a biology student, and I sometimes wonder about what would happen if you put these genes into a parrot or a raven (who can both learn to say human words, and also the meaning of some of them). But I guess trying that would be unethical😅 Still, it would be soo interesting.

[@ziggystardog]

Can we take a moment to consider how comfortable they are with Mikayla to allow her to watch and video them grooming. Such intimate moments that could never happen at a fur farm.
