Journal Response 20

20. If you had the ability to talk to one species of animal, which animal would you choose to communicate with? Why?

If I had the ability to talk to one species of animal it would be the canine in order to find out the truth of the human race and of their own kind. Many human have a domestic pet and in most cases it is a dog, which can be indoors or outdoors either way the see as hear what humans talk about and do, just by the way that the human treats their pet say a lot about them. If the human is violent toward the dog but is not towards humans it show that he/she bottles up all there emotion and stress and take it out on the most vulnerable, proving that the frustrated human cannot show  his/her true self to the humans by fear of rejection. If the human treats the animal like his/her own son/daughter then that human has a heat of gold who has love to spear or someone who never had a child but wishes to; however, it may also speak about a dark side of the person that one never knew about. He/she could actually treat the animal better then his/her son/daughter, because the animal is better at listening or doesn't talk back. Dogs like every other animal have been underestimated, not just in their ability but in their intelligence. By being able to talk to a canine I will be able to find out if they are smarter than us or just the same, for example I believe my dogs are secretly smart because they behave or pretend to be injured just to get a treat, then again make me believe otherwise because they never learn from their mistakes. As one can see being able to talk to a dog would answer this question, and my biggest reason, other than figuring out the human nature, would be to end the sterotypes people have of dogs such as that they are unintelligent and have attention deficit hyper activity disorder, because they go nuts when they see a squirrel or that they hate the mailman.
