How anyone can believe animals have no feelings is entirely beyond
my understanding. They may not be able to speak but their actions speak louder
than any words they can ever voice.
They express love in ways we can only dream of. Many cases have been
reported where dolphins have protected human beings against shark attacks and
saved from certain drowning. Scientists even call them non-human persons
because of the compassion they display. People who suffer from post-traumatic
stress have been known to benefit from spending time with these loving mammals.
Swans mate for life and when one dies the other will remain alone
forever. How many humans can say this? With the divorce rate so high in the world
we can learn the true meaning of the term till death do us part from our
feathered friends.
Rhinoceros are believed to be the firefighters of the wild. When
encountering a field fire they promptly stomp it out. These wonderful animals
are hunted and murdered for their horns that is grounded up and used to treat
erectile dysfunction. Men may as well chew on their own fingernails for the
help it will do.
The majestic elephant never forgets anything that happens in its
life. They will carry a grudge or remember a kindness done to them for ever.
They are so trusting to humans that they won’t budge out of an enclosure even
though they have the strength to break down any man made structure.
We see many things on the net about unlikely friends and animals
taking care of other species. This is only one of them.
If after reading this you still think they don’t deserve our care
and protection I have no hope left for you.
Blessed Be and Namaste all living creatures that populate our
beautiful earth!!
Very nice article. Although I completely understand why it was fascinating for a lion to adopt a calf... I do not understand why the humans did not intervene when they saw both starving due to not eating. Amazing piece. I eat meat... I am a carnivore... but I also believe in the sanctity of life. We can learn a lot from watching the animals.... a whole lot. I think in our race to become something above animal... we have forgotten that we too are only that...an animal who is currently at the top of the food chain. Sigh....
