Jared Martin: 我深信我和我的狗狗Enzo之间存在一种特殊的联系。我能感受到他不同的情绪,并且他似乎也能理解我。虽然我有时会怀疑自己是否真的能完全理解他,但我们之间的默契是毋庸置疑的。我能通过他的眼神、声音和行为来判断他的需求和感受,这就像一种无声的交流,超越了语言的限制。 Holly Molinaro: 我认为我们常常将人类的情感投射到动物身上,误以为自己了解它们。我的研究表明,人们对动物情绪的判断很大程度上受到情境的影响,而非动物本身的行为。因此,我们应该更加谨慎地解读动物的情绪,避免主观臆断。我们应该尝试从动物的角度出发,理解它们独特的感受和需求,而不是简单地将它们视为“毛茸茸的小人”。 Alexandra Horowitz: 作为一名犬类认知研究者,我致力于探索狗的感知世界。我发现,狗主要通过嗅觉来感知世界,这与我们人类以视觉为主导的方式截然不同。为了更好地理解狗,我曾尝试像狗一样嗅闻,体验它们所感受到的气味信息。我意识到,狗的世界充满了我们难以想象的气味信息,它们通过气味来构建对世界的认知。因此,我们应该尊重狗的感知方式,尝试从它们的角度来理解它们的世界。
