Quote:
because it begins to itch
On second thought, I wonder how they found out that deer are capable of feeling the itch? Just because it is a relatively elementary feeling (but different from pain), we tacitly project in on these animals? Is Consciousness necessary for feeling (and reacting to) an itching?
Define "consciousness."
