I would love to read that article and see how they defined sentiences, senescence, tumescence, sapience, all that for their research. shitposting aside that sounds really interesting.
Comment on Nick has had enough.

Anyone, including the writers of Zootopia, that say animals aren’t sentient and especially if they say they don’t have emotions and feel things … are just telling you they are an unempathetic monster.

I meant to write sapient, not sentient.

To even have to use the word sapient over sentient is to draw a line that humanity still does not know how to discern from the vast majority of the animal kingdom.
Basically, you’re choosing to be one of those heartless morons that want to deny the sentience of animals.

Mate, the point is that they’re not talking cartoon anthropomorphic animals. You’re overthinking this to a ridiculous degree.

How can you fail to realize that I also am talking about real animals?
Seriously, you goons are so hellbent on pretending thst real animals cannot feel that it is truly beyond pathetic…
