Sometimes, i realize, animals may be so much better as compared to humans.
I was watching this documentary on discovery channel on octupuses giving birth and it's really sad. The mother octupus would protect her eggs from all the predators which want to eat it and to do that she has to stay by her eggs 24/7 for many days, without food. Sometimes, if she is really hungry, she would not leave her eggs, she would actually eat HERSELF. Once the eggs hatches, she would then be able to leave. However, by that time, she would be so weak from hunger that other enemies would attack her and she dies.
Such sacrificial love.
Whereas some human mothers kill their infant child or torture them. Yet animals can die in order to protect their young. Humans are definitely smarter, but are they better? Abortion rates are on the rise and this is reflecting on our society. Well.. this is a bad bad world. We just have to live with it. And actually, we can actually learn from the animals.
So i better stop now. take care everyone. Ciaos~
