Just when I thought Khan Academy was good, they step it up to great. This is EXACTLY what I wanted from you guys: animal education! Thank you!

Ethos is an appeal to ethics, and it is a means of convincing someone of the character or credibility of the persuader. Pathos is an appeal to emotion, and is a way of convincing an audience of an argument by creating an emotional response. Logos is an appeal to logic, and is a way of persuading an audience by reason.

Prior to this video, I would get mixed up between entomogy, the study and ethology. The explanation has clarified the difference. However, I was expecting a more detailed discussion on issues such as fixed Action Pattern, cognitive learning, Associative learning among others. A lesson on animal behaviour can't be complete without a discussion of works by Konead Lorenz ( impritting) and Ivan Pavlov (associative learning).

Thank you! I’m currently in the process of getting a pet psychology certification and during my breaks from it I watch videos of topics I had a hard time understanding. This was very helpful!

I'm I correct to say this:
Ethology: Lack of food (stimulus or cause) and Crying (response or effect)
Psychology: Desire of food, Pain of lack of food and belief of impotence to get food (stimulus or cause) and Crying (response or effect).??

Jordi Casamitjana brought me here! go jordi... go jordi! and Mr Lumpy, which is a group on FB that follows a family of Badgers. In a recent clip a Badger appears to play with a Fox. So inter-species friendship was something I pondered. Esp wild animals.

My mum think that we are a step above animals (because that is what god wanted for us). OMG mum, we are ANIMALS. She also doesn't think that we evolved from monkeys.


And this is why I became non-religious. I love animals and trust more in science than what a god has told us (or what we think he means)
