Scientists have reported that "EEGs" show brainwaves of animals mimic the emotional responses of humans. Sometimes I wonder.

Found this image made a few years ago and am reminded that we should save our original files as our PP skills will hopefully get better. When we have (I haven't) the original we likely can render a better result. Oh, well, "if wishes were horses beggars would ride" my forebears would say.

Thanks Bob. Hunting with a camera is so much fun. Here in this very populous part of Florida we are seeing a sharp decline in our wildlife across the board. This reminds us that these fleeting photo ops are never repeated, thus we must hang onto our "keepers."

Don, humans are animals... unless we be mineral or vegetable?
We share much exact DNA with reptiles.
There is a part of the human brain that is utterly identical
to the skinks in your captivating photo.

Skinks are chordates, so are humans. The phylum we share
is defined by 5 identical anatomical features.

I feel that most mammals (and other orders of chordates) definitely
have emotions.

Crocodiles aggressively defend their babies
when they are eggs. And that chordate predates
humans by millions of years.

So, who "mimics" whom?
Or if you prefer; who mimics what?

Humans of course
come from eggs too, however human eggs "hatch"
before they leave the mothers body... The same as
"viviparous" snakes that nourish their developing fetuses
through a placenta and give birth to live young...

Not to be confused with "ovoviviparous" snakes which are NOT placental
but also give birth to live young.

However you wrote: "brainwaves of animals mimic the emotional responses of humans"

So you must also "Absolutely agree!" that you are saying;

"brainwaves of animals mimic the emotional responses of animals."... humans being animals; not minerals or vegetables.

As a Russian who has been told the blatantly obvious might say...

Daaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!
