Animals Think and Feel Moral Consciousness Says German Psychologist
Prof Richard Herbertz of Berne University argues in Die Gartenlaube that animals possess conscience and clear moral standards. He cites dogs avoiding forbidden meat and a mother swallow deserting and then reuniting with her young, urging interpretation of animal ethics as akin to human. He also challenges trial-and-error learning, noting a baboon spinning a straw lasso to reach fruit as evidence of independent thought.
