Misconception of animals

                                                    Misconception of animals.

Jonathan Safran Foer, the author of eating animals claims that “animals seem to have thoughts and emotions”. And, as he shows it with his companion, George doesn’t like to be frightened, he loves playing. In a way George is an animal, in the other, he’s more than that. According to the etymology, the word animal means “having breath”. It also refers to non-human animals.

People tend to believe that animals are just animals; however, it’s totally the contrary. Human beings are considered as animals, the only difference is the instinct. Animals share the same world of emotions that humans do. They feel melancholy, they fear of being taking away from who they love.

It would be senseless and contradictory at what scientists have proven to acknowledge that animals don’t project any feelings. Animals do have feelings and they also have emotions. By observing the way animals react, do different things reveal that they do have emotions? They cry, they can frighten. Animals experience pain and loss in a similar way to humans. Tom and Minou were in fact parts of my family. They always wanted to be next to me, and we used to share the same bed. They both knew the exact time I would get back home from school, so they would stay in front of the door to say hi. The sounds that they made usually meant how my day was, and if I brought them any gifts.
