What is it like to be a dog? A bat? Dolphin? Can we humans understand this? Now yes, thanks to the scientific work of neuroscientist and best-selling author Gregory Burns. Together with his colleagues, he accustomed dogs to a tomograph in order to be able to observe the processes occurring in the animal’s brain and analyze its thoughts and sensations. But dogs are just the beginning. Gregory Burns brings us news from the field of neurobiology of wild animals: sea lions can catch the rhythm of a dance, dolphins see through sound, and even a lot can be learned about the marsupial wolf, which became extinct almost a century ago, through neuroimaging. The revolutionary scientific discoveries described by Burns prove that animals experience the same feelings that we do. This means it’s time for a person to reconsider his attitude towards dogs and other creatures.
