I have never considered any animal a nuisance since I believe that we humans are the ones
who disturb their environment, however, I have heard that raccoons figure out ways to open
containers and steal food from people.
2. Are the animals mentioned on the radio show -squirrels, raccoons, deer, cats,
intelligent? how?
I do believe that those animals are really intelligent, it doesn’t matter that they can’t
communicate exactly as us, but they can socialize in different ways and anticipate things.
3. What abilities do people and animals share? What abilities do people have that
animals don’t?
Some animals can socialize like us, and also transfer knowledge to other generations as us.
Animals have excepcional capacities and I don’t think we have something they don’t, maybe
my position is controversial but I think there’s so many things we can’t understand about
them.
4. What are some examples of people treating animals inhumanely?
Well, off the top of my head I think the perfect example is the circus; they don’t treat animals
too good and they have them as a way to make a living! I don’t think animals should ‘’work’’
for people, they should be in their natural environment.
5. There is a debate over whether animals should be used in scientific
experiments and whether we should eat meat. Should people stop doing these
activities?
I have always had problems with those kinds of practices. First we should need to
understand the context of some situations because not in all kinds of experiments animals
get hurt, as humans also can be part of some experiments. On the other hand, I do believe
we should stop eating meat, at least eventually when we could build a better society based
on environmental care.
