    Not really, but if it seems so then that could explain why you can't get   
   "down" to the level of thinking about the animals. It would be a jump up for   
   you   
   in reality. I did it when I was a kid by watching my chickens for hours at a   
   time, until they chilled out and just did what they did and I could get an idea   
   what life was like for them. You might not be able to do anything like that or   
   appreciate it if you could, but that's why I keep suggesting you go spend some   
   time checking out some local cows or something and trying. IF you ever try, be   
   sure you do it alone. It would be best if there was no other human in sight.
