119 Men vs. Animal
I always enjoy watching nature shows. Since I really get to see animals in the nature habitat in person seeing them doing what they normally do on television is the next best thing.
I was recently watching a show on animals in Africa, thriving when the weather is good and surviving when the weather is not so good. Then they got to thinking about us, humans, and how one some ways we thrive or survive depending on the social or economic climate that surrounds us. Then I thought what makes us so special how are we different from animals of course we are like animals, we eat, drink, sleep, grow, make families and pass on. We are at the top of the food chain, we can kill other animal for food if we want, but animals kill for need. Human sometimes kill of anger. We can tame animals but animals can't tame us. Humans could help other humans and animals are need. Sure some pets are known do rescue on their owners, but it's rare for an animal to save human. If animal think much, they don't really show it. Humans, on the other hand, sure do a lot of thinking. We dedicate faulty philosophy, we can’t play on our own dives, we read books, we create art; we spend leisure time doing things just for fun. Just enjoy life not because we have to do those things to survive. It seems like humans are not really satisfied with themselves. We are in to self-improvement. We also go overboard or go to extremes because we are harder satisfied. we get surgery and changes the way we look. Animals know how to live harmoniously in their nature environment. We shape our environment to fit our needs and sometimes destroy that actual environment.
There are few famous animals in history; here are many famous people who are remembered for what they have done. Human history is full of trims of doing what was thought to be impossible. Human can do amazing things but so can't animals.
