How the Hen House Turns: The Human Factor and Dolphins
How the Hen House TurnsJust what do we mean when we refer to something unique about humans?
All life recognizes other life, so that’s not it. Recent science magazines report that bacteria communicate with chemicals, so individuals can form mats or colonies, when there are enough fellow bacteria nearby. Communication doesn’t make us unique. Perhaps we assume too much.
