I was watching some show recently where a herpetologist was saying, "people who have mammals for pets tend to think of them as individuals. People who keep reptiles think of them as a species."
depends on what it is. An alone is an anole. That toad I cought in my friends yard, while unique with it's active voice, the most of any of the hundreds and hundreds of toads I've cought in my life...it's still just a toad. Looks the same as every other toad. The beardie, he actualy interacts with you and shows personality. I suppose it boils down to brains on the animal and the level to which it can respond to you.
:lol: My first thought to starforces reply was "a humans just a human but my pets are smarter" . I think it comes down to the person who has the animals really. I for 1 think my animals are better then most humans and deserve to be treated like individuals where as most humans are just a species I attempt not to deal with face to face.
well I dunno if pets are better than humans, but they can certainly be better companions given the way some humans act...and they wont stab you in the back.
