A lot of things i thought were cute and nice like dolphines, ducks, cats (i saw one cat eat anothers new born), dogs (multiple cases of eating dead owners due to a variety of reasons starting from trying to wake em up to other malicious reasons), hamsters etc turned out to be wrong . Raccoons are the only thing i believe in anymore so give it to me straight are they as they seem ?
Edit : To reduce confusion and to not have to answer to duplicate comments NO I do not hate animals . I think they are all neat and they are what they are and I don’t hold them up to humans standard but I’m not an animal person like cat people or dog people either . I hope this clears it up.
What we perceive as “guilt” from domestic dogs is generally classified as a fear/submission display. It’s anthropomorphizing. Not saying that dogs don’t have feelings. They absolutely do. Guilt and shame, however, are likely not in their pallette.
