Grateful

In December 2005, a 15-meter-long humpback whale and a 50-ton weight were lucky to be rescued by a group of divers. After being free, 'the girl ' rubbed each diver and swam around - a gesture that followed whale experts as ' unusual and rare communication '. Jammes Moskito, a member of the group of divers, said: 'It seems to thank us for releasing it. The animal stopped about 30 cm away from me, pushing me with my nose as if playing around. And yet, when I cut the mesh across my mouth, his eyes flickered and stared at me . '

Empathy

Ceann Lambert - Director of Indiana Coyote Rescue Center (USA) said one morning, she saw two pups trying to escape the basin in the garage. When she saw them begin to get tired, she poured some water into the lid and dropped it in the basin. A cow came to drink and saw the sample of food they had previously earned, bringing him weaker. Every time the weaker mouse tries to grab the food, the other one slowly moves the food closer until the catch is caught. After recovering their vitality, the two climbed out with available north Lambert planks in the pot.

Angry

When disturbed, animals are also " angry " like humans because they also have neurotransmitters like serotonin, testosterone, as well as brain areas that govern anger, aggression and enmity. And it is not difficult to recognize when animals are angry. Octopus species are also angry. When agitated, their white color turns red.

For many years, Alex, the name of a smart gray parrot, expert Irene Pepperberg noticed when something was dissatisfied, Alex was very angry. For example, when feeding him bird food instead of cashew nuts - his favorite dish, Alex would close his eyes and puff out his hair in disapproval.

Sad

Gorillas have long been known to be able to watch when animals are ' familiar '. Because of this ' practice ', some zoo organized ' funeral ceremonies ' whenever a gorilla died. Donna Fernandes, director of the Buffalo Zoo in New York, witnessed it while watching for a death monkey from cancer, the male monkey had behaved like saying goodbye to his partner. 'My: ' He howled and patted his chest with pain. Not only that, he also picked up the celery piece - the favorite food of the children 's life - and put it into his' wife 'hand and tried to wake her up.'

Love

The ' couple ' of malamute dogs (dog breeds in northern Alaska, USA) named Tika and Kobuk after giving birth to 8 litters, 'restoring' their old age in the house of Anne Bekoff. Anne said Kobuk was strong, loud and " bullying " his wife. Normally when going to the door, Tika must give up her husband first, otherwise she will be " upper-arms ". However, when Tika's legs became poisonous and had to be removed, Kobuk was no longer aggressive and always looked after ' his wife '.

Happy

Dolphins often laugh ' cracked ' whenever happy. When wolves ' reunite ' often cheer, flap their tails or lick their muzzle together. When meeting each other, elephants clap their ears, spin and hold the welcome ' howl '. An animal behavioral researcher once observed a chimpanzee 'overflowing', whose congregation expressed joy by howling and embracing each other. They took turns taking care of ' pregnant women ' and ' babies ' for weeks.

Care

Watching elephants in Samburu National Reserve in Kenya, Iain Douglas-Hamilton expert told the BabyL the elephant had been crippled for years, but the others had never left it behind. The whole group took a few steps to stop and wait for the " coffee " elephant to come.
