Amazing Animals

Posted by PETA UK on March 10, 2011 | Permalink

Animals find new ways to astonish us every day. Wouldn’t it be great if we returned the favour by astonishing them with our compassion?

Scientists have discovered that “sheepish” really means “brainy”.
Dolphins and researchers have learned to speak each other’s language. Can a Rosetta Stone course be far behind?
Perhaps those dolphins can help us translate a Compassionate Action Award into dolphinese for this pup-friendly pod who rescued a dog.
A courageous canine has proved that true friends are there when you need them most.
A goose has found her lovebird in a retiree who visits the park where she lives.
The Daily Mail answers the question, can dogs (and cats and elephants) die of a broken heart?
Gorillas have been caught on film having a family meeting. Maybe over who ate the last banana?
Chimpanzees laugh at their friends’ jokes, even when they aren’t funny.
Macaques question their own reasoning. A lesson in there for humans, perhaps?
