2nd Expedition Question

Do we have an ethical responsibility toward animals?

Yes, we should. First, we humans are animals too. We shouldn’t exempt ourselves from the animals because we evolved faster than them. And throughout history, animals never treat others cruelly. They compete but they don’t exterminate. If we humans accept them truth that we are animals too, we should definitely follow the rule of the mother natural.

Do animals have emotion? Give example is possible.

I strongly believe that “some” animals have emotions. For example, dogs. I think dogs are very emotional. They had been human’s friend for millions of years. They makes sounds and movements to show their emotions. Another example is elephant. I once read from an article that elephants have incredible memory. And the article is talking about a little boy bullied and infant elephant in a national park. And when the boy grew up, he went back to the same national park. And when he got there, he is attacked by an adult elephant. Later, he found out that it’s the infant elephant he once bullied. This elephant showed its hatred toward the man because it’s bullied by him before.
