There's a lot going on in this article as it takes on a pretty expansive topic regarding human and animal consciousness. I find this to be an extremely rich debate and probably for that reason have a hard time finding definitive answers. A good read worthy of much continued pondering.

Great article! I sometimes have an issue of going too far in thinking animals rational by giving them human characteristics too. Although it is funny when dogs look and act like their owners...or is it the other way around (Montaigne)?
