   Animals,most if not all,DO experience emotion but certainly not in a way we   
   as humans understand.Same goes for humans as people experience the same   
   emotion in different ways,same as any other animal.....No matter how ya   
   slice it,any emotional animal,human or not,still makes a great meal under   
   the right circumstance.
