I'm pretty sure other animals are inferior to us emotionally
    #14583995 - 06/09/11 08:06 AM (12 years, 7 months ago)

...The Whale... If you read a recent front page  story of the San Francisco Chronicle, you would have read about a female  humpback whale who had become entangled in a spider web of crab traps  and lines. She was weighted down by hundreds of pounds of traps that  caused her to struggle to stay afloat. She also had hundreds of yards of  line rope wrapped around her body, her tail, her torso, a line tugging  in her mouth. A fisherman spotted her just east of the Farallon Islands  (outside the Golden Gate ) and radioed an environmental group for help.  Within a few hours, the rescue team arrived and determined that she was  so bad off, the only way to save her was to dive in  and  untangle her. They worked  for hours with curved knives and eventually freed her. When she was  free, the divers say she swam in what seemed like joyous circles. She  then came back to each and every diver, one at a time, and nudged them,  pushed them gently around as she was thanking them. Some said it was the  most incredibly beautiful experience of their lives. The guy who cut the  rope out of her mouth said her eyes were following him the whole time,  and he will never be the same.


I'm sure they were just anthropomorphizing all of that.

Whales have also been shown to navigate using the stars, and they have changing songs that evolve over time like human music.

I never said that.  I'm sure they were.  It's the only way we can relate to another species.

Unless of course we want to see them only as a material object which is how most people relate to other animals imo.

So are you being sarcastic with your thread title then?

I don't think all other animals are inferior to us, besides the fact that we rule the world.

Yeah, it was pretty obvious but sometimes it can be hard without tone.

I have always wondered about this...you hear with certain species of animals that the mother must hide the offspring from the male...or they will be killed.

Then you hear the news how some guy killed his family.......

...do we share something with them?

So what do you think why the whale came back to each of them ? To look if she could eat them ? :evil:

Yes, just another part of the animal kingdom. Just because we used technology and intelligence to rule the world doesn't mean we are any less of an animal.

Awesome story. That made me real happy. I loved the stories about the dolphins who saved shipwrecked sailors during WWII.
