Because we want to believe we're infinitely more sophisticated and not generally governed by the same basic impulses as chimps and dogs.

We're wrong btw.

Humans are animals. If a human gets killed by a roving pack of wild dogs, that's just the circle of life, baby.

Why do so many humans forget animals were here before us and treat animals like dirt? The answer? Humans in general are selfish.

Scientifically, animals can be divided into two categories: pure and unpure. Most domesticated animals, like humans, are unpure since we defecate. All the pure animals in the wild have no need for such a disgusting process. So, in a way, humans are actually one of the lesser animals.

That's right. Humans are in the genus of Homo. People are Homo sapiens. The genus, Homo, is in Kingdom Animalia. When I first learned that we are from the animal kingdom, I thought it strange, but after learning more about the classification system and the definitions, I began to accept and wonder why people weren't counted as animals. I remember some teachers saying, "People are a kind of animal, but different kind. That's why we go to school."

Dogs can wear pants. OK, it's not usually their own choice. And I don't know if many dogs are insured to drive. But if they are, it doesn't make them humans.

...

Yeah, I'm not really sure where I'm going with this.

Although we are pretty wild.

Yes, hence Malthus's predictions.

ScritchOwl posted...

Not really necessary. The existence of a predator is only one way to reduce a population, even in that case, the end result is the apex predators' population growing then declining based on resources.

Report post: I'm in the comment and I don't like it!

No the difference between humans and wild animals is inhibitions. At best we try to domesticate an animal by selective breeding and trying to train the animal into thinking there is a better reward later. Humans if you remove their inhibitions they revert to wild animals.

This post is brought to you by beer helping ugly people breed since 7000 bc.

In a weird way all humans are wild... since our social traits are developed from within our species.

If a herd of elephants were drinking tea together without any influence from people, they'd still be wild... no?

No, all humans tend to be highly domesticated because they're raised from birth in human captivity and learn their cues from their human masters >_>

Would they, though? That would suggest that they're picking up and imitating human behaviors, which isn't a wild thing.
