Some birds can make and use tools, others can learn to recognize and attack specific humans. Whales can steal, robots can hunt and eat prey, and new research has shown that apes can laugh. And they don't just make ha-ha sounds, but make them in the same contexts and for the same reasons as people.
All of which makes me think, but two idea keep coming back to me:
1. Humans are not as special as they like to think they are,
and
2. The rest of the world is a lot more special than humans give it credit for.
