But I could never hunt elephants, because of some of the things I have found out about their high level of intelligence and sensitivity (like the “funeral rites” they perform when a member of the herd dies, their greeting other elephants they have not seen in a decade or more, etc.).
Just so I understand: The animals thatyou do hunt, doyou hunt them because they are
not intelligent and sensitive like elephants? Do you hunt deer because they are stupid, insensitive and cannot paint pictures?
Perhaps elephants have "funeral rites" because the rest of them will not be killed and eaten by the lions/crocodiles/leopard/cheetah/etc. that killed the one that died
