Animals have small brains so they are not able to think like a human or communicate in a complex way like humans do, even if they can learn or imitate some form of communication, that doesn't mean they can talk but. I would assume most animals communicate in one way or another, even flies probably, and flies are practically just flying around no thought and no brain (almost), but its more like an automatic thing from evolution or whatever, and not because they can think.ouch wrote:
So for you it isn't really about the ability to communicate/speak but more about whether the species is intelligent or not?Effer wrote:
Some animals can already communicate if we teach them how to. There was the gorilla or monkey who knew sign language and there's also the speech pathologist who's teaching her dog to speak using buttons with recorded words. So some animals do contain at least a bit of intelligence.
Key word, a bit of intelligence. Most are stupid as a rock compared to humans in general Some animals can already communicate if we teach them how to.
