What things have raising animals taught you about humans or made you realize the similarities?
I am not talking about appearance wise but more personality wise....
For instance with raising rabbits you can breed them real young but waiting a bit is safer for the young female and there natural instincts kick in on how to care for youngins.
Young doe's can have kits outside the nest, accidentally stomp on them, and not feed them.
For me I was thinking about the young teens who have kids in high school and aren't mentally ready for it, a few freakout and do the unthinkable/totally ignore them or give up to adoption.
It doesn't need to be this dark but what breed of animal have you seen do things that are similar to what a human would do or a response similar to what yours would have been?
