We’re beans–I’m glad to find others appreciate my bug fascination. Actually, one of the things I was pondering as I watched that particular dung beetle was the split among cognitive scientists between those who desperately seek a way to set humans apart (and above) non human animals, and those who seek to find similarities. I had recently read how some of the former were saying problem solving was a sign of “higher” consciousness. But there I stood in my pasture, watching a dung beetle who rolled that little pile of dung into a hill. Let me be struck by lightning if that dung beetle didn’t stop, walk ALL the way around the pile of dung, including up and over the hill. Then went BACK around. Then promptly went to another part of the dung in order to roll it AROUND the hill. Now, I ask you, if that’s not problem solving, what is?
—time passed–nope, I’m still here. No lightning. 😀
I had a point in mind when i started this post, but…
Did I mention I’m ADD? *Embarrassed*
