6TH NEWPAPER CONTRIBUTION

I believe that animals are intelligent beings, they have emotions and they feel pain just like us. Some studies show that animals like dolphins and chimpanzees are very intelligent even if their brain size is smaller compare with the human brain. Some people say that humans are the earth lings because we destroy others species just for fun, clothes and food.
The brain size is considered an indicator of intelligence of an animal. However, many other factors also affect intelligence and recent discoveries concerning bird intelligence decrease confidence with the usefulness of brain size as an indicator. Elephant brains also show similar complexity to dolphin brains and are also more complex than that of humans. This needs to make us thing that not only humans are the intelligent beings on earth it could be selfish on our part to believe this.
Finally many nations have laws offering protection to conservation to species for example forbidding hunting, restricting land development or creating preserves. It’s important always to remember that humans depends a 100 percent on the environment, including animals and we always should respect the other species because they feel and suffer just like us.

  1. I agree with the idea that the animals feel and suffer like us, but I do not think the animals be intelligent because they do not analize, they act by instinc and that makes the diference from inteligence, in this case the animals do not analized they just react in order to a physical necessity.
