ANIMAL FORTEANA


In the beginning of things men were animals and animals men. ~ Algonquin saying

"For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much — the wheel, New York, wars and so on — whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man — for precisely the same reasons." ~ The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Wonderful, Incredbile, Amazing Doberman

This clip has been making the rounds, I've seen it on Facebook, Twitter, several blogs. But it's such a great story of animal communicating I had to post it here. Dobermans are great dogs, incredibly sweet and extremely intelligent. I think a lot of people continue to underestimate animals. While I find this story a wonderful example of our connection with animals and their abilities to think, communicate and yes, express themselves creatively, I'm not surprised.

    That's great. Notice the stuffed animals behind them at around 0:41. Even they are interested :P
