It is the formers' luck that the latter haven't got the sixth sense.<BR/><BR/>Animals kill not only for food, but also for territory (ex. lions) and for that matter because another object moves (ex. shark). They also show compassion to comrades (ex. elephant) and to members of other species (ex. elephant and dolphins).<BR/><BR/>So, I begin to wonder why we stereo type animals as crude, or mean and humans as inherently better. I think a much more appropriate word that is in vogue anyway is "ass hole". It forms a perfect parallel. Good and bad are both in humans and animals.
