Do animals really feel ‘regret’?

June 3, 2009

We love following scientific research projects about whether or not animals really feel emotions. Those scientists are so funny! They’re the only people out there who could possibly wonder about this point at such a late date.

But it’s also fun to read about the things that animals actually do when they are pushed far enough in scientific experiments. Check this article out.

We LOVE the story about the female chimpanzees at the Tulsa Zoo that took advantage of a renovation project to steal the painters’ supplies, don gloves, and paint their babies solid white. When confronted by their furious keeper, the mothers scurried away, then returned with peace offerings and paint-free babies.

…can’t believe they put on gloves before painting the kids.

And needless to say, this is why we will always believe that the reason 89% of dogs eat grass is because they need the nutrients found in fresh, leafy greens. Most authorities agree that there’s a lot to this theory.

Now just imagine how smart your dog will think you are to have figured it out and given him Dog-Wa, once those funny scientists finally do convince themselves once and for all.
