>>>some psychologists and philosophers call this view of animal behavior "sentimentality" or "pathetic fallacy."<<<

I don't understand what people think. It confuses me. When I contemplate it, I can't picture their world. So I guess we're isolationists, dropped to within a small boundary, enclave, of life as we see it.

I don't know if that makes sense, but the animals around here are treated with a pretty fair amount of respect and empathy.
