Yeah, Sea Lions are obnoxious and destructive but not usually malicious. But Seals can be mean just for fun. They would make excellent early 2000s prank show hosts.
Fun fact, trying to determine if a dog is more intelligent than a cat is nearly impossible because that it's hard to tell if the cat doesn't understand the test or just can't be bothered.
The cat understand perfectly the test, but think that, if you like it so much, leave me alone and do it yourself. A dog is a pack animal and for this reason it obeys, yes or yes, the leader of the pack, the owner, a cat or felines in general, with the exception of lions, they are solitary hunters and do not have the concept of a leader, A cat sees you as an equal, at most a friend, but not as a leader. This has nothing to do with intelligence, but with the very nature of these animals.
Cats just require a different approach. But it's far from impossible to train them as long as you adapt, just as you would for any various species of animal. This guy has figured out how to train cats and he's hardly the only one.
Lots of cats big and small are very social, even if they don't form packs in the wild.
Yes, cats can form groups when this offers them advantages in food and survival, as is frequently seen in stray cats, but they are anarchic groups, without fixed leadership. Naturally you can train cats, but only if they see an advantage in following what they have learned, they must be convinced to follow your instructions, which is much more complicated than in the case of dogs.
It depends. If the toddler is trying to actively kill themselves, they are super smart AND fast. On the other hand, I'm told that some cats share a braincell, and if it's not their turn with it, then that's that.
Morals of a seagull fucking got me
Seagulls are vicious and vindictive bastards.
An amoral, thieving, all-terrain plaguebearer.
The real winged rats. Pigeons are generally nice enough, seagulls will swoop down and steal your whole basket of french fries out of your hands.
I would never besmirch rats. Rats have compassion and intelligence and humor. If I wanted to compliment a seagull then I would call it a winged rat.
I like rats, and I knew I'd rightly get this response. But a NYC rat would definitely steal a whole pizza from you if you gave it the opportunity.
Rats learn behavior and it's echoing NYC.
Seagulls are smart motherfuckers
So what I’m hearing is they’re sea huskies
Do huskies have the morals of a seagull?
Do most animals choose between right and wrong, or are they acting on instinct?
Huskies are definitely able to discern between right and wrong. They just don't care.
Can confirm. My husky knows what she's supposed to do, she does what she wants as long as I don't say anything.
I was going to say Sea-Min-Pin but the OP never used "on PCP" as a descriptor.
Semen pin, you say?
Jokes like that risk the health and safety of your ankles.

Id guess most people think of fur seal pups or something when they think of seals. I think of the leopard seal. Mean motherfuckers
Is that more or less intelligence than a cat?
Fun fact, trying to determine if a dog is more intelligent than a cat is nearly impossible because that it's hard to tell if the cat doesn't understand the test or just can't be bothered.
Wasn’t there a study on cats that concluded something like „cats know when you call their name but just don’t care“?
That's correct. Although all 7 of ours will come when called.

Exact this

It all depends on the frame of reference.
yes
Inclusive or will get you every time.
I guess that's why sea otters murder and rape seal pups
In that order?
Sometimes they keep the body to hump later

Huh. Maybe I am an otter.
Are the morals of a cat actually any better?
I was just about to say that all the cats I've known had the intelligence of toddlers and the morals of seagulls.
yeah that's enough internet for me today
The morals of a seagull ??? Now, I am scared!
