If you think animals are that dumb you are mistaken. We have a cock (= adult male chicken) who is very aggressive, but only against human males. So if chickens can recognize the gender of other species, then I'm pretty sure that a giraffe can recognize the gender of one of its own species.
- sigzero 16y agoNot dumb...some animals are rather smart. I am willing to bet that humans have the most emotionally complex system though.
- eru 16y agoIf you could come up with a definition, that claim may have some content. E.g. should the (sexual or otherwise) behaviour of ants or ant hills be classified as emotional?
- thebigshane 16y agoI don't mean to imply that ignorance is the cause of their homosexuality! Only that Giraffes are mostly indifferent to gender relative to their "horny-ness" (is there a better word I could use?) which is far different than human homosexuality.
- roel_v 16y ago/"horny-ness" (is there a better word I could use?)/ -> level of sexual arousal Leave it up to me to transform a perfectly understandable and conversational word into something abstract and clinical ;)
