Language Of Animals

NJ. HoUzEAU m aintain5 that
not only does each group OF an
imals possess language which is
understood by other members Of
the same group, but that they
can learn to understand the Ian
gnage Of other groups. His dogs,
for instance, perfectly under
sto1d his poultry. Cocks and
hens have one danger signal for
The approach of birds of prey,
another for that of terrestrial
animal or for man. When the
latter was sounded the dogs
would rush out and bark, while
to the former they paid no atten-
tion whatever He there fore
concludes that fowls have the
power Of expressing slightly diff.
ferent but closely allied ideas,
and dogs can learn to understand
these differences Scribners
