Look at that precious little hand:loveya:


A zoo official holds a seven-day old Stump-Tailed macaque at the state zoological park in Gauhati, India, in this July 9, 2005, file photo. Though the Center for Disease Control and Prevention has prohibited importation of most monkeys as pets since 1975, some macaques imported for research are now being sold on the open market.

6. I once picked up a baby possum that had a broken back
I couldn't pull it up from the ground, and then I looked and saw that it had it's little hand wrapped around some blades of grass, holding on desperately because it thought I was going to hurt it. It was holding on for dear life...it really touched me how 'human' that was. I think when we say 'human' we mean alive in general, sentient. It's such a shame how little capacity for emotion we assign to species other than our own.
