Idea: Animals express pain and sadness silently, while humans verbalize and seek comfort.
Explanation:
Humans tend to cry, talk about grief, or isolate themselves when in pain. Animals, especially prey species, may hide their suffering (a survival instinct). A limping dog or a cat avoiding food is an emotional signal. This emotional silence in animals often leads to underestimation of their feelings by humans. The key idea: Pain is universal, but not always loud.
