Q&@
HOW CAN
WE BE CERTAIN
THAT AT 7 a.m.,
when Santino goes about secreting stones here & there,
he is imagining how fun it will be to pelt the visiting humans at noon?
Maybe Santino is also driven by some non-conscious algorithm, just like that young squirrel
hiding his nuts 'for winter' even though he has never
ever yet experienced winter?

Similarly, say the sceptics,
a male chimpanzee attacking a rival who hurt him weeks earlier
isn't really avenging the old insult: he is just reacting to a momentary feeling of anger, the cause
of which is beyond him. When a mother elephant sees a lion threatening her calf, she rushes forward
and risks her life not because she remembers that this is her beloved offspring whom she has been nurturing
for months; rather, she is impelled by some unfathomable sense of hostility towards the lion! And when a dog
jumps for joy when his dear owner comes home, the dog
isn't really actually recognising the man who fed
& cuddled him from infancy? He is
simply overwhelmed by
an unexplained
ecstasy!
