"Imagine a warm spring day on a small farm in Mississippi. The flowers are in fragrant bloom and a sow that has run free of the farmyard has just given birth to piglets. Later that day, a glance under the porch where the new babies are resting reveals a wonderful sight. The mother pig has carefully bitten off blossoms to make a bouquet of jonquils, which she has arranged in a bright yellow wreath surrounding the sleeping litter. No one who saw such a scene could doubt that animals know just as much about nurturing and celebrating life as people do, and maybe much more."
