 | | These animals were skinned and their pelts hung on frames to dry. | | | The use of the word "candidly" follows the commentary which implies that the meaning is to speak clearly of truth and falsehood. | | | 104: "Raining animals" is an allusion to the "Sir Fantasy Rhapsody." The "pits" are traps to catch animals. |

| | Animals, in DnD terms, are obviously reguarded to have some kind of thought process and communication system built in, otherwise a spell like Speak with Animals isn't really going to work and gnomes wouldn' be able to chat with the burrowing friends. | | | Talking animals are of course used whenever the spell *Awaken* is used, and that is indeed a favourite. | | | Awakening animals and trees to guard a sacred site is probably acceptable, and I can see evil druids awakening various animals as more competent servants/underlings or as particularly innocent looking assasins. |

| | Animal rights activism - definition of Animal rights activism in Encyclopedia |
| | Although most philosophers who speak on this topic either argue for equal consideration among all animals (see Peter Singer) or arbitrary consideration among all animals (see William Baxter), most activists are in agreement that such a lofty philosophic goal is too hard to achieve, and instead merely work toward giving non-human animals more consideration. | | | Animal rights activism is a form of activism that attempts to bring about both a public awareness of the lack of consideration of rights for all animals, and a change in law to prevent this lack of consideration from negatively affecting animals. | | | Animal rights activists can be divided into two categories: those who believe that all animals should have equal consideration of rights, and those who believe that non-human animals should be given more consideration of rights than they are currently being given. |

| | I argued that through her re-writing of the story of Genesis, Walker indicates that racism, sexism, and the abuse of animals are the contexts for human language as it exists in western culture, understood as equivalent to representation as speaking about. It is the possession of language that conventionally separates humans from animals. | | | If, as Walkers re-writing of Genesis suggests, the use of language in Judeo-Christian culture is intimately related to its history of oppressing people of color, women, and animals, then the separation of humans and animals that language or representation inflicts would be avoided by finding a way to speak at the outset from this culture. | | | As my analysis of her re-writing of the Genesis story shows, however, lying behind this separation of humans and animals is its cause: the power of white male patriarchy over women and animals, enacted in the boys murder of his mates familiar. |

| | Talking animal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | A good number of old literature involves animals which come to speak with humans, such as in Aesop's Fables and several mythologies, including Greek and Chinese. | | | The usage of talking animals enable storytellers to combine the basic characteristics of the animal with human behaviour: for example in the Three Little Pigs, the supposed animal rapacity of the wolf is shown through its repeated tricking of the three pigs. | | | Although such a prospect may seem unlikely to many, certain more intelligent animals, such as the dolphin and the ape, have shown to make sounds at each other with a marked repetition in vocal patterns, which strongly suggests that they are indeed communicating with each other using their own language. |
