Those birds that get to experience northern winters apparently lose their easygoing southern nature and become very very angry. So in addition to having to suffer through that awkward teenage period of feeling like it doesn’t fit in with the other kids, the adolescent Red-tailed Hawk doesn’t even fit in with its own species.

If you’re suffering through a sweltering patch of record summer heat, you may feel much as Ralph Waldo Emerson did when he penned this line: “When summer opens, I see how fast it matures, and fear it will be short; but after the heats of July and August, I am reconciled, like one who has had his swing, to the cool of autumn.”

The many small ponds and waterways attract quite a few ducks, though presumably due to their China experience, they are extremely wary of people. In contrast, Little Egrets almost seem to revel in their high visibility (when they do not suffer from winter depression). These Eurasian Teal s know they are treading on thin ice in China.

I don't believe these animals get the quality of care they deserve for the suffering they undergo. If you "humanize" the animal and grow attached, how can you conduct experiments on it? You have to objectify them and they suffer for it. I'm glad PETA is drawing attention to this issue.

In my experience, parrots form a visibly and numerically important component of the Brazilian bird fauna. Both of these endemic parrots suffer from habitat loss and trapping for the pet trade. Brazil, in particular, is the country with the largest number of parrot species in the world with approximately 84 species.

My view, then, is not that which it has often been taken to be in discussion and which Singer, Regan, Clark, and others blast in their work; I am not suggesting that, because they lack language, animals can be factory farmed without suffering. Animals can suffer, which they could not unless they were conscious; so they are conscious.
