Question: why do you like animals so muc? what made you like them so much?

Hi, I loved wildlife documentaries from a very early age and had various pets (hamsters, gerbils, dogs, cows…..yes cows, my dad had two pet cows that had names – Marmite and Margeuritte). I have two reasons I love being around animals: one is that I love sitting trying to figure out what might be going on in an animal’s head as it’s going about its business; the other is that animals are very ‘honest’, they don’t lie about what they’re currently thinking of you (my dog often gives me a dirty look and goes and huffs on the settee if I’m not giving him treats).
