All animals feel pain

Primates make different faces for different emotions

Dogs remember who you are when you walk through the door

Dolphins are known to communicate with each other

Elephants grieve when a member of their herd passes away

Octopuses build protective homes for themselves

Koko the gorilla knows over 2,000 words in the English language

Chimps tickle each other and laugh

Ravens use tools to survive

Animals are so like us,

Who says they shouldn’t have rights?
