Humans are not always bad for birds, only about 95% of the time. Sounds a bit like some weird Nazi eugenics experiment to me, but I guess it is just science. Humans often use a similar concept, for example, by excluding US Supreme Court Judges from following pesky rules regarding the declaration of gifts. Does anyone know?

So modest and retiring is this well named woodland recluse that it will not sing if it suspects humans are taking notice of it. Perhaps it feels some measure of security from human intervention in subdued light. To hear the song at its best, one must be there at twilight, which eliminates most people.

And here is the problem: Siberian Chiffchaffs are visually distinct, call very differently from European Chiffchaffs and their song is so different that one form doesn’t react to the other’s song in playback experiments. Maybe the two song-types are connected by a gradual change? And the presence of Giant Hogweed will as well.

And human psychology says that humans are far more social than rational creatures. And that means for the animal rights movement: Social entities like compassion, empathy and suffering are very important factors to motivate humans to change their behaviour.

A fundamental organizing principle of the human brain is the “minimize danger and maximize reward” principle (Gordon 2000), commonly referred to as Avoid – Approach. It is a survival instinct that drives human behavior at a subconscious level. The default mode for new situations or those associated with mistrust is Avoid.

The topic was the concept of humans as predators, or hunters, or really, eaters of meat, and I was discussing the many ways in which people misconceived this notion. Even though this referred to a period after the supposed “scavenging” phase, it lent support to the idea of a stepwise evolution of the ability to hunt.
