There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
Why insists that animals lack an consciousness while you yourself are admitting that too little is known?
Wouldn't it make more sense for animals to be more conscious about the world, as they are the ones in constant danger and such?
And what rules? Morals are purely a social construct. Even among humans there are huge deviations between what's right and what isn't.
