"I think they have more of a chance becasue , while many manage to delude themselves into believing that an unborn child is not a baby , it would be much more difficult to convince yourself that a crying baby is n't a baby . Even in the animal kingdom ( which we are all part of ) you see some animals hesitate to kill the young of their own species . Evne coyotes will not generally kill a pup ( I have even seen a pack of coyoptes pass a domestic pup without killing it , though they could have . I am told this is because of the stubby nose , which shows the coyotes that it is , indeed , a puppy , even though it looks unfamiliar to them ) ."
"Again , your argument does n't make good sense . First you say a fetus has no chance against someone who wants to kill it . I agree with this . Then you say a child has a chance against someone who wants to kill it ... and you base this on the killer 's changing his mind because the baby 's crying . Where DID you go to school ? Have n't you heard of the many shaken-baby-syndrome deaths that occurred because some idiotic person in custody of the child got fed up with the baby 's crying ? It just would n't stop crying , so they killed it . Until a child gets old enough , smart enough and strong enough to outrun or hide from someone trying to kil them , they have no chance of survival . Your argument is all wet . We are separated by reasoning and compassion from the other animals . Theirs is a life based on instinct and a few learned behaviors . For every example you can give me of animals protecting their own young , I can likely present an example where the males ( sometimes the females ) will kill the young of their species just to keep down the competition . A domestic bitch , when presented with a weakling in a litter of pups , will eat the weakling ."
