Do animals have a sense of humour?

[Bambang]

to Bambang - dogs can smile

How can they smile? Do they have smile muscles?

Once your pet dog's tail wags upon seeing you, you've got to look at its face then you'll see the smile.

That's not a smile.

It is Uncle B. Look at the eyes. And I can tell too if my dog is sad.

Dogs have some muscles of sadness and anger. But they don't have any muscles of smile as far as I know.

You should see my dog...
They said, that the pet acquires the character of the owner. Do you believe in that?

Well, it was you who made me torture my doggie! Actually, it is far from what she does when meets us, but it is like that way - the corners of her lips... erm... chaps gather all together. we dogowners call this grin a smile usually, far from hollywood one

When my cat wakes me up with his claws in the morning, I really think he has a sense of humor. Sometimes I think he means to do something get me angry, then he can laugh at my reactions. I think he acts his sense of humor in a different way, but there is no doubt that animals have a sense of humor. I totally agree with that.

If you had observed a monkey imitates human behavior, you may find out it has something in common with human. When a monkey copies our reactions, it seems try to prove that we will laugh at the reactions. It is similar like how pets entertain their masters.

On this basis, it may be concluded that animals have a sense of humor. When they do something funny, they seem tend to catch our attention.

i have watched many clips on youtube i which animals are doing funny things.but i think these kind of things are funny for us not for them.they are just doing like normal.so i think they have no sense of humour...

[minjikim]

OMG!
I don`t think they have a sense of humor!
Animal can recognize object but it`s limited to think cognitively.
I mean, they can notice which one is milk and book, but they can not have a process of thinking..
Therefore, they can`t think what would be funny or humorous. Maybe it is possible to behave cute or funny but they can not have a sense of humor!

IDK

I don't think pets have the senso of humor. You need to be really clever to have it.
It is rare to find it even in people
I think pets like playing

They do. I can tell it by their tails when they are happy or sad. I can see the glow from their faces too. When my labrador was still alive, he cried in front of me when I bid goodbye to him. I never had thought that it would be the last time for me to see him.

I have my dogs in mind when I replied on this. anyway, thanks for your comment.

[sweethuman]

Oh okay then fine. Anyway I have never kept any animals for self intrest.

[ArnauEstanyol]

I think that what we do is to humanize our animals. The animals have developed some primary emotions and instinctive behaviours but they have no rational mechanisms, so they don't have the ability to develop the humour sense.

That's not an absolute truth. We cannot compare the mental mechanism of a chimpanzee with a frog.

[vijai]

yes,they do.i have seen it from dogs.i think most of you have seen that.
