It never fails, after a major catastrophe someone will say 'oh, i saw that animal running ... away...before it happened.' duh, pay attention folks.
Personally, I feel like I have great relationships with all my 'pets'. You have to learn their language, and to some extent they seem to try to meet you somewhere in the middle.
Most interesting has been my 2 conures. For years I just had a Sun conure, he makes no effort to 'talk' like so many people think parrots do. I had to learn his language, from body language to noises expressing his wishes.
About a year ago I got a green cheek conure and watching them teach each other (and me) is fascinating. the green cheek 'talks' in english (mimics), yet taught the Sun her body language and vocal language and vise-versa.
Every little noise they make has a meaning, every little noise.

I can only star your Op once, but thanks a million stars for that information. It is not something which I either retained or remembered hearing before. Why do you think that so many deaths and stranding have happened?
Having been in the Navy do you have anything you would like share about the tests which may have caused harm to the whales and dolphin to name just 2 of our sea brothers? Not on to you, just trying to understand.

Back in 01 prior to 911, I spoke with a commander of a Navel installation about this issue and he was actually pissed that the public was accusing the Navy of using these technologies that hurt the dolphins, I believe he truly believed his stance and that they were not in fact at that time using such technologies.
What you say does raise questions about the other countries which do things without any public recourse or watchdog groups working with their militarism to ensure that this type of action/experimentation does not injure aquatic life in the process.
If what you wrote in the Op is any indication it may be possible that what happens in the tradition of the hundredth monkey could be affecting sea life worldwide.
It sickens me when we see story after story come out about deep sea animals floating to the surface dead and dying. Even without any sonar type technologies affecting life, our own planet is going through changes naturally which in the past has begun in the ocean and eventually killed most life on earth.

I love your post, arb,
And I agree entirely - we should be looking more at animal behaviour instead of rushing off and killing our own species.
That is what we do, and we are supposed to be the most intelligent beings? No way.
Also, we seem to be too stupid to realise that we are also killing our planet.

One of the coolest , and smartest dogs I've ever had...I never knew this until recently, but there are groups of breeders that purposely cross the Lab/Akitas. Labrakitas, they call them. Gentle and protective. Usually between 90 and 110 pounds, with a secret yearning to be a lap dog...LOL

Nice post OP. I agree, mostly.
But teasing any meaning out of the speech is not easy. There're smart people working on it.
But the more people working on it, the beter the chances we'll crack the code.edit on 24-11-2011 by jonnywhite because: (no reason given)
