I saw my dog get embaressed once. And I saw the dog/mouse thing
firsthand. But there's plenty of other great animals stories not about
violence: Octopuses communicate by flashing colors. In "Trials of
Life", they showed 3 octopuses swimming, the one one the left and the
one in the middle were flashing in response to each other, but the
middle one was only flashing on the left side. The right side stayed
solid white.
But now I guess 40 people will tell me I never saw that video, and David
Attenborough never said "here's an example of Octopuses keeping secrets
from each other", and he's really full of shit anyway, because the Apple
II was invented in 1975.
