evilbaronatreides Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 so are you saying that some animals may have some sort of conciousness? That they are aware of the things they incounter and can make rational decisions on their own? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 Ofcourse they have consiousness man... If they didnt, then they are death. People always think that animals cant think, that they are dumb like hell and follow instincts. Man they can think, but most of the time animals follow instincts for survival. *Still thinks of the killing spree fox :) * Ohh yeah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quoudam72 Posted January 29, 2002 Author Share Posted January 29, 2002 Well EBA it's like I said it depends on the animal. You know the old saying "a elephant never forgets" well it's true as some animal researchers have found out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nampigai Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 I don't know much of elephants but isn't there something called elephant cemeteries? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acriku Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 Elephant graveyards would be pretty dang big don't you think? Unless it was stripped for it's meat and ivory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quoudam72 Posted January 30, 2002 Author Share Posted January 30, 2002 Elephant graveyards would be pretty dang big don't you think? Unless it was stripped for it's meat and ivory. Well yes Acriku the graveyard would be large and the other animals have to eat so I would suppose that other animals would come to the graveyard to scavange. It's just the emotional attachment with the elephant species is amazing in it's comparision to human emotions in regards to death. There are other animals with these same responses, I just happened to mention elephants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted January 30, 2002 Share Posted January 30, 2002 I wonder if insects have emotions too. If you watch some of their Species fighting and doing some other aggressive behavior ??? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilbaronatreides Posted January 30, 2002 Share Posted January 30, 2002 i always thought of insects as living by only reaction and instinct, never with thought or reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quoudam72 Posted January 31, 2002 Author Share Posted January 31, 2002 Insects usually are "hive-minded", they do not do any thinking outside of the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilbaronatreides Posted February 3, 2002 Share Posted February 3, 2002 yeah, i can agree with that. They pretty much live for their suvival or their colonies survival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
