So Nathan you think they are smart, do you? How much time have you spent around them? My personal experience says you are mistaken, but that is my take on the matter. How many animals do you know besides cows and sheep that stand around with their head under the butt end of another only to be covered when the other takes a dump? I do not put them high on my list of intelligent creatures.

Most animals actually respond to music. I used to have an iguana that would bob his head up and down to the beat of music. The old adage that "music soothes the savage beast" has meaning in a literal, as well as, metaphorical sense.
