Re: Interesting article
Pretty interesting stuff! Iguanas especially, my friends sister used to have some years ago and they were only enjoyed being handled by her, and the other one used to let you stroke it but if you tried to pick it up or anything, it would attack you! Say that article has some truth!

Haha. I'm thinking the same exact thing.
That whole article is pretty much just an opinion. No facts or proof that I can see that are proving reptiles have emotions.

Re: Interesting article
interesting read, shame they stuck to fairly vague areas of discussion, and didnt include any biochemistry/neurotransmitter info, which is the basis of all emotions. an animal doesnt need to be able to explain ''feelings'' in complex and abstract ways, in order to feel many of the same emotions we do.
The only significant difference I can think of, relates to the way we reproduce, our offspring needs significant support for many years, and so we need to form long term bonds in order for this to be successful....of course our big brains mean that we come up with all sorts of abstract concepts to describe this biological process...most of which are based on idealistic nonsense instilled by the likes of Disney and Jane Austin

It actually seemed like useful info. I'm basing that off the fact that I didnt understand it lol.
