They should never be in a cage do you put your dog or cat in a cage after your finished playing with it? Its a sick and wery wrong and it is animal torture to fixicate animals for 10 /15 /20 hours in small cages each day of the year to its death.

I went to our local zoo some years ago (which had an elephant and polar bears and all kinds of exotic animals) and was completely mesmerized by the goings-on in the Prairie Dog enclosure. It was the highlight of my visit. I grew up on the Canadian prairies so am no stranger to Prairie Dogs, but watching them close up as they dug their tunnels and got into all kind of family dramas with each other because one was digging and throwing soil and burying the entrance way of one of their buddies until the fight was on . . . it was beyond entertaining!

@@alexiswilliamsinc Which elements do you believe are verifiable? I believe the claim that they can relay information about clothing to other prairie dogs to be very difficult to support along with the term "great detail" to be a gross overstatement. We are animals, but we're vastly more intelligent than even the next runner up. The ability to create language and express things that aren't real demonstrates that very well. I think we tend to be too charitable towards animals in regards to their intelligence and reflect our desire for them to be smarter than they really are onto them. Evidenced by all those great ape sign language studies, almost all of which turned out to be nothing more than human's interpreting what they wanted to see.

@alexiswilliamsinc

10 ай бұрын

@@ChipCheerio Difficult to support does not mean the research can’t be done. I used the word verifiable purposely, because there are ways to triangulate information that is passed from animal to animal without speech or other human-centric methods of communication. I would want to see the research behind the claim before I guessed at their measures, but I imagine there was some analysis of animal sounds, body movement, and subsequent behavior by the recipient animal that had to do with clothing and/or other physical features relevant to such animals. Generally, prey animals tend to have sophisticated methods of environment observation and communication for survival. This begins to get into the idea of what qualifies as intelligence so I’d rather not. There is a lot more current research, however, beyond primate sign language.
