ACTIONS OF ANIMALS EXPLAINED 



instinctively resent injury to their bodies as much 

 as we do, and express their instinct in very similar 

 fashion, yet almost any other instinct seems strong 

 enough to make them neglect the injury as when 

 a monkey, or a dog, or a dormouse, or a parrot, 

 will lacerate its own live flesh for want of some- 

 thing better to do.
