"In actual laboratory experiments monkeys were forced to choose between electro-shocking other monkeys and doing without food themselves. Almost all of the monkeys went hungry for up to two weeks rather than shock others. These macaques, who have never gone to Sunday school, never heard of the Ten Commandments, never squirmed through a single junior high school civics lesson, seem courageous in their moral grounding and their resistance to evil. If the situation was reversed, and captive humans were offered the same deal by macaque scientists, would we do as well?"

Carl Sagan and Ann Druyan in their book
"Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors"

"Paws For Thought"

"But however much our planet "cross-evolves" through increasing global communication, it will still be a few generations before a sense of unified compassion towards all animals is slowly recognized throughout most world cultures. Even then, it will depend on which countries own up and act on their mistakes and those which don't. In the meantime,
domestic cats and dogs are no doubt already a pet favorite amongst many societies, and because of this they bring huge benefits to people through faithful companionship.

This is why, to many of us, the sight of such animals dying of disease and starvation in the streets is an act of inexcusable, cultural ignorance. But there is more. Dogs help humankind in many ways - as aids for the blind - or "sensors" to help find those trapped in earthquakes and disasters. For this alone, surely they deserve more respect from those who otherwise view them as bony blots on the (Olympic) landscape?"
