And When Somebody Gives off Information, Others Process It and It Becomes Their Own Intelligence

“Can Animals Think”? Response.

When somebody speaks, others listen.

When somebody gives directions, others obey.

And when somebody gives off information, others process it and it becomes their own intelligence.

But is this the same technique an animal uses, can they truly comprehend what comes out of their owner’s mouth when they talk directly towards them? The behaviorist in this magazine article states “an animal cooperates when; they learn it is in their interest to cooperate.” There are possible tricks as to why learning movement or language can become so enduring to them, yet if they did not have the complete ability to think interest wouldn’t be significant. For instance when teaching a devious dog to “sit, speak, roll over” why would they insist on learning and succeeding unless they had a reason to do so.  Maybe it is because they come to realize their trainer or owner is in power of how they act and they want their very best to beguile them. Also the thought may occur they cannot disobey what their master says and don’t intend too. Or perhaps an animal aims for intangible appreciation; their insistence on reacting to a command is because they want the dominate to be satisfied with how well they performed to the task. Animals can and have always have been able to think, especially on balmy days. It is a possibility animals just show emotions or act in a different manner that we have not picked up on yet. The evidence in the article not only shows they can think, but also how they seem to act when communicating through their thoughts and feelings. If animals can think, they probably do their best thinking when it serves them a purpose. For now all psychologists, zookeepers, and even day to day pet owners can provide is there time as we inch closer and closer to a better understanding on how animals think and process information.
