Explain to me why animals that are sterile dont flee at the same rates from predators as ones that are still in their breeding prime
Explain to me why animals that are sterile dont flee at the same rates from predators as ones that are still in their breeding prime
Because they're older?
not even all humans can grasp mortality or death adequately
i say we can grasp it quite well
No, een animals that are in their "prime" but are sterile dont flee at same rates @Joe Powerhouse
we understand what causes it
and we understand what it causes
why do some parent animals refuse to feed offsprings they know will die
@Doctor Anon hmm.. Never heard of that. Animals don't know they're sterile.
No they dont
@Doctor Anon They do
But they dont instinctively flee at the same rates
No they arent conscious of it
Sterility kills sex drive, and sex drive is instinctual
Animals do not comprehend their sterility or sex drive
They simply *respond* to it
^ das true
Love, even in humans, is fabricated from the point of view of sex
Attachment is instinctual
Love is something we made to give meaning to the attachment
Mourning is not instinctual
I would argue that Elephants, and Some primates and Cetaceans are also capable of sentiency
I *heavily* disagree
They are capable of basic consciousness, i submit that
But sentience on the level of Humans? No.
Studies have shown Cetaceans may be capable of more intellegence then humans
Based off the fact they have more complex and larger brains
Wow
You really dont know biology if you claim thay
Complex Brains are not linked to intelligence
Brain size is wholly detached from intelligence
"Are Whales Smarter Than We Are? Cetacean brains, such as those of dolphins (left) and humpback whales (right), have even more cortical convolutions and surface area than human brains do."
By that logic Sperm Whales are the most intelligent form of life
They have the largest brains
Which is clearly untrue
Sperm whales have the largest brain... *not what I said*
Read any study, for the love of god, brain area does not correlate with intelligence
"Are Whales Smarter Than We Are? Cetacean brains, such as those of dolphins (left) and humpback whales (right), have even more cortical convolutions and surface area than human brains do."
it makes no sense that sperm whales would develop an intelligent brain
