In your article, “A Change of Heart About Animals", you state that we are finding out that animals are very much like humans and that we should change the way we treat them. I have to completely agree with you on this; it's very inhumane to treat animals like they are inferior to us even though they are showing many human like qualities. Many people are looking through the abilities that animals have, like Koko the gorilla that was taught 1,000 words in sign language and understands several English words. These characteristics can not be overlooked and should be brought to the people's attention.
We should stop right in our tracks and try to work out some sort of a solution. Animals are like humans; we both show emotions towards our lives. We should all show animals respect for the skills and abilities they obtain. For me it’s very interesting all these things that animals can do. I’ve had many pets the one that sticks out the most were two birds that were together. I remembered that when they were together one would always chirp so much, but one time a cat went into the room where we kept them and ate one of the birds. From then on the bird never chirped and wasn’t as active as she use to be. This just showed me that animals have emotions just like us.
