Comment on We wouldn't listen, anyway.
Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 1 day agoYou have a severe case of anthropomorphizing animals plus a stark lack of education on animal behavioral sciences. You have zero idea what you’re talking about.
Koko’s “conversations” were gibberish that the scientists conducting the experiments interpreted with extreme bias. They wanted there to be meaning in what the gorilla was doing so they interpreted it as if there was. It was a heavily flawed experiment.

Bullshit. You just don’t speak any animal language
I can tell you what a dog is thinking at any given moment. They’re so expressive I can dictate it in real time. They tell you where and how they want to be pet, they can understand time and remember names
Koko was barely special. She spoke a form of sign language, and she enjoyed interspecies communication enough to devote time towards it. That’s what is rare
Do you understand how much more they’ll have to say when we crack their language? Because it’s coming

Lol. You are like the epitome of the Dunning-Kruger effect. It’s amazing how confident you are in your ignorance.

K bud. Go back to school. Take it from someone who focused on animal health and behavior during their degree path in wildlife conservation. You’re full of shit.
