There are many animals that do mourn the dying. They don’t go buy a coffin and have a funeral, but that sentiment is definitely there…I think humans think too highly of ourselves and think we are “over” everything because of the Bible’s bullshit about reigning over the animals. When it really comes down to it we’re just as vulnerable as we ever were. We have the illusion of safety with the civilization our tools have built us, but it is still that – an illusion. We are one large natural disaster or virus, or famine away from being exposes for the helpless stupid creatures that we are at any given moment. And we continue to trash the planet like we own the place without any regard for what we are destroying.
Sorry…my rant is done.
