The story of people and animals living in harmony.
9000 years ago, dogs were the favorite animals of Greeks and Persians. They let the dog and his family live in the same room, and they are intimate. To this day, dogs are still one of the favorite animals of many nationalities. The languages of some countries, especially many idioms in English, are closely related to dogs.
People have deep feelings for animals, and animals are not cruel to people. It is said that Dickens, a famous British writer, had a beloved cat, which loved its owner very much. It doesn't want to see its owner stay up too late. So when Dickens was still writing at his desk late at night, the cat put out the candle with its claws and asked its owner to stop writing.
It is worth mentioning that once an animal becomes a plaything, after several generations, its brain will inevitably become smaller and its intelligence will decline. For example, feeding rabbits as playthings in parks or rabbit boxes is much more stupid than wild ones.
People keep animals not only for entertainment, but also for work. It is reported that the ancient Roman emperor Healy Gabarra (AD 204-222) kept a group of tigers. When fighting, use tigers to pull chariots, not horses.
In Brazil, an interesting thing is to let the boa constrictor look after the children. Coincidentally, there are also monkeys that eat grass in Africa, and there is a farm in Namibia, Africa, with 80 sheep. Interestingly, the shepherd is not a human being, but a big monkey whose scientific name is baboon. It drives the sheep to the mountains during the day and comes back at night. You can also recognize your own sheep accurately and never make mistakes.
The touching story of animals saving lives in the century tsunami.
Recently, people affected by the Indian Ocean tsunami have attracted worldwide attention, and governments and people all over the world have donated money for disaster relief. A Thai elephant in the United States has not left behind, and it has helped the victims with its unique skills-its paintings are being auctioned online, and all the proceeds will be donated to the Red Cross. In fact, in this tsunami, there are many supernatural stories about animals helping people.
The art created by elephants raises money for victims.
According to the report of American media in 6543810.6, there is an elephant named "Sarah" at Fort Worth Zoo in Texas, USA, which weighs 7000 pounds (about 3 175 kg). 1967 was born in Thailand, and later "immigrated" to the United States and became a popular member of Fort Worth Zoo.
1in the summer of 996, the smart and lovely "Sarah" suddenly had a brainwave and learned to draw under the guidance of the city zoo, and began her creative career. After all, it is an extraordinary behemoth, and the painting style of "Sarah" is also very bold, with few thin and straight lines. With this "unique skill", the popularity of the elephant "Sarah" is constantly rising, and it can be called the "star" in the zoo.
After the Indian Ocean tsunami, the whole world is trying its best to donate money to the victims. After some consideration, Fort Worth Zoo came up with a very good idea to auction an original painting of "Lhasa" online, and all the proceeds will be donated to the American Red Cross and handed over to the victims of the tsunami-stricken countries.
In this way, the elephant "Sarah" from Thailand can also contribute to the people in her hometown. On October 5th, local time/kloc-0, 65438, Sarah's works have been auctioned on Ebay.
It is reported that "Sarah" is not the only animal with painting skills. Previously, a Japanese chimpanzee also launched his own art exhibition, displaying more than 50 oil paintings in Tokyo, which attracted many people's attention. In addition, a little white pig in Moscow also held a painting performance. However, "Sarah" was the first person to sell her works to donate money to tsunami victims.

Spiritual stories of animals helping people in the tsunami
The elephant saved the child.
In Phuket, Thailand, an elephant escaped to safety with many children in the big waves. British tourist barnett said that on the day of the tsunami, huge waves rushed to Phuket, and an elephant taking pictures of tourists on the beach became a life-saving hero. Because the elephant owner carried many children on the elephant's back at a critical moment, the elephant turned them away from the dangerous beach and finally escaped successfully.
The serpent leads the way to save women.
In Banda Aceh, the capital of Aceh province in Indonesia, a woman was guided by a big snake to a safe place. Lisa, a 26-year-old woman, said that on February 26, 2004, the village where she lived was flooded by huge waves, and people fled in panic. At this time, a female neighbor was seriously injured and asked Lisa to tie up the twins and run away, so she carried them on her back.
While fighting against the rapids, she saw a big snake swimming along the rapids from the left. She kept swimming with the big snake and finally swam to a safe place. Afterwards, Lisa said, "Strangely, I didn't panic when I saw the big snake." Besides, the serpent didn't bite them.
