Animals understand our emotions perfectly

To the animals only the word is missing, but this does not mean that they do not perceive our words towards them. Researchers from Zurich and Copenhagen have made a new discovery: horses and pigs can distinguish sounds. These sounds are “charged” in a positive or negative way, like that of human language. This is evident from the behavior of the animals themselves.

Among people, there is a reflection (emotional contagion) that can be triggered by facial expressions or
observing the behavior of others. Not only does this happen between humans, but humans can also ‘infect’ them
animals. Scholars have involved pigs, horses and wild boars to confirm this. These were subject to
listen to animal sounds e to vote people through hidden speakers. The reproduction of sounds is
occurred by positively or negatively charged sounds. Then with pauses and intervals of sounds
opposite to the beginning.

The results showed that domestic pigs and horses, as well as Asian wild horses, can distinguish when sounds come from their own species and close relatives, as well as from human voices.

Finally, the animals were also able to distinguish between positively or negatively charged human voices.
They all had different reactions to them depending on the positive or negative charge. Everyone except wild boars. The
animals reacted more fearfully when they heard or even reflected a negative voice
emotions to which they were exposed.

In short, to the researchers, this discovery suggests that they talk softly and calmly with animals. IS
also recommended for their well-being. The essential tools to improve the lives of our animals
I’m language and behavior calm and positive.
