“They say that animals are incapable of feelings and reasoning. This is false. No living thing on earth is void of either. They also say that man is the most intelligent — and the most superior — species on earth. This is also false. It is very arrogant to assume that we are the most intelligent species when we keep repeating the same mistakes over and over again. It has been shown that both rats and monkeys learn from making errors, yet we have not. Our history proves this. All creatures on earth have the capacity to love and grieve the same way we do. No life on the planet is more deserving than another. Those who think so, are the true savages.” LoveFeelingsEarthAnimalGriefConversationCreaturesBehaviorEmpathyErrorsSpeciesProtectionReasoningMaking MistakesAnimalsApathyArrogantRatsMonkeysWildlifeEnvironmentalismLearning From MistakesCreatureGrieveRatSavageMonkeyLearning From ErrorsIntelligent SpeciesLobaSuperior SpeciesWorld Forest Book:Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem Source: Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem
